Fantastic song off of "I Used To Be So Young". The intro is the only complicated part; listen to the song to
get the rhythm for the tabbed bit (which you can also play for the [Break]). If you have other songs by this
guy that you want tabbed out, just leave a comment and I'll try to figure it out.

[Verse]
G
Happy Fourth of July everyone
I hope the BBQ and beer treat you right
C G
I heard that freedom, isn't really free
D C G
That doesn't mean it's okay to kill other people
D C G
Because they come from different blood than you
D C G Em
And please don't think that Jesus wants you to
C A G
Kill other people 'cause they're Muslim
[Break]
[Verse]
G
Merry christmas everyone
I hope you’re all warm and cozy in your house
C G
It's not the kids fault that their dad went to jail
D C G
And it's not their fault there's no food in the house
D C G
And Santa Claus doesn't visit their part of town
D C G Em
And I heard a man once say that the last shall be first
C A G
Unless he only meant that for white Christians
[Break]
[Verse]
G
Happy Easter Sunday everyone
I think you all look really great in your new shirts
C G
I wonder if the kid that made it, got a new shirt too
D C G
And I wonder if he ever learned how to read and write
D C G
Or if he has running water in his house
D C G Em
And I wonder if his mom and dad are proud of his work
C A G
Or if they died working in a sweat shop
C A G
The Gap kids, Gap, or baby Gap
C A G
Abercrombie and Fitch or American Eagle
C A G
Banana Republic or regular old fashioned JC Penny
[Break/solo]
[Verse]
G
Hey there sweetheart I got news for you
I had a talk with your dad last night
C G
So I went out, and bought you this diamond ring
D C G
It came from a slave mine in Africa
D C G
Where people don't have the choice to leave
D C G Em
The man in the mine, he works under gun point
C A G
But I bought it so that I could say I love you
C A G
And I bought it so that I can say I care
C A G Em
And I bought it so that I can get inside your pants
C A G
And I buy everything because I'm an American
