Verse
[Fm7] [Gm7]
From the Indians who welcomed the pilgrims
[Fm7] [Cm7]
And to the buffalo who once ruled the plains
[Fm7] [Gm7]
Like the vultures circling beneath the dark clouds
[Bbm7]
Looking for the rain
[Cm7]
Looking for the rain
[Fm7] [Gm7]
Just like the cities staggered on the coastline
[Fm7] [Gm7]
Living in a nation that just can't stand much more
[Fm7] [Gm7]
Like the forest buried beneath the highway
[Bbm7]
Never had a chance to grow
[Cm7]
Never had a chance to grow
Chorus
[Fm7] [Gm7]
And now it's winter
[Fm7] [Gm7]
Winter in America
[Bbm7]
Yes and all of the healers have been killed
[Cm7]
Or sent away, yeah
N.C.
But the people know, the people know
[Fm7] [Gm7]
It's winter
[Fm7] [Gm7]
Winter in America
[Bbm7]
And ain't nobody fighting
[Cm7]
'Cause nobody knows what to save
N.C.
Save your soul, Lord knows
[Fm7] [Gm7]
From Winter in America
Verse
[Fm7]
The Constitution
[Gm7]
A noble piece of paper
[Fm7]
With free society
[Gm7]
Struggled but it died in vain
[Fm7] [Gm7]
And now Democracy is ragtime on the corner
[Bbm7]
Hoping for some rain
[Bbm7]
Looks like it's hoping
[Cm7]
Hoping for some rain
[Fm7]
And I see the robins
[Gm7]
Perched in barren treetops
[Fm7] [Gm7]
Watching last-ditch racists marching across the floor
[Fm7] [Gm7]
But just like the peace sign that vanished in our dreams
[Bbm7]
Never had a chance to grow
[Cm7]
Never had a chance to grow
Chorus
[Fm7] [Gm7]
And now it's winter
[Fm7] [Gm7]
It's winter in America
[Bbm7]
And all of the healers have been killed
[Cm7]
Or been betrayed
N.C.
Yeah, but the people know, people know
[Fm7] [Gm7]
It's winter, Lord knows
[Fm7] [Gm7]
It's winter in America
[Bb7]
And ain't nobody fighting
[Cm7]
'Cause nobody knows what to save
N.C.
Save your souls
[Fm7] [Gm7]
From Winter in America
