Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch
You see the ghosts of the buffalo
Moving both fierce and slow
ch]D[/ch
Like glittering prophesies
On the edge of the horizon
ch]Dm[/ch
As you drive glittering highways
And beaten-up by-ways
ch]D[/ch
That straddle and girdle
A great and many-faced nation
ch]Dm[/ch
You see lambs in the ghettos
Who worship their Gepettos
ch]D[/ch
Believing in, though never seeing
The strings they think bind them
ch]Dm[/ch
So you write to our congressmen
With bleeding pens
ch]Dm[/ch
Of the sorrow within
And in return they just send
ch]D[/ch
Tickets to the latest Tom Hanks show
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Welcome to the new wild west
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Each man for himself
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Civilized steeples
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And lonely people
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Welcome to the new wild west
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch
There are so many factions
And cue-card reactions
ch]Dm[/ch
It's hard to keep clear
The possibilities here
ch]D[/ch
'Cause there's no force to unite them
ch]Dm[/ch
Privilege has ruled for thousands of years
Wars have been fought with bibles and tears
ch]Dm[/ch
Yet liberation can't deny the temptation
ch]D[/ch
And soon becomes the oppressor
ch]Dm[/ch
Show me a leader who's fit to lead
Who don't sow his seed in anything
Wounded enough to breed
Because after all what fun is power
ch]D[/ch
If you can't act like a rock star?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Welcome to the new wild west
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Each man for himself
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Civilized steeples
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And lonely people
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Welcome to the new-

Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch
See me, I've been cruel
I've been petty and unkind
ch]Dm[/ch
But I know my own mind
And since it seems clear
ch]Dm[/ch
There's no one leading us here
The only thing left it appears
ch]D[/ch
Is to task ourselves to be better each time
Then those before us
ch]Dm[/ch
We'll be an army of theives
Of self-freed slaves
ch]Dm[/ch
Of mild-mannered maids
We'll fight with whispers and blades
ch]D[/ch
So get ready, a new day is dawning
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Welcome to the new wild west
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Each man for himself
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Civilized steeples
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And lonely people
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Welcome to the new wild west
