And from the indians who welcomed the pilgrims
And to the buffalo who once ruled the plains
Like the vultures, circling beneath the dark clouds
Looking for the rain
Yeah we've been looking for the rain
Just like the cities staggered on the coastline livin'
And a nation that just can't take much more
Like the forest buried beneath the highway
Never had a chance to grow
Really never had a chance to grow
And now it's winter
See you next winter in America
The time when all of the healer done been killed
Or been betrayed
Say people know somethin' wrong
See you next winter in America
Today there ain't nobody fighting because
Well nobody knows what to save
Got to save your soul from winter in America
The Constitution
Noble piece of paper
With free society
Struggled but it died in vain
And now democracy is ragtime on the corner
Hoping it'll rain
Yes I've been hoping for some rain baby
Just don't look like rain I've seen
Robins perched in barren treetops
Watching last-ditch racists marching across the floor
And like the peace sign that vanished in our dreams
Really never had a chance to grow
Somebody won't know until they miss the winter
Cold, it's like winter in America
Time when all of the humans
Put 'em in jail
Say people know there's somethin' wrong
It feels like winter
See you next winter in America
The truth is there ain't nobody fighting because
Well nobody knows what to save
The truth is there ain't nobody fighting, nobody fighting
Nobody knows and nobody knows what to do, what to do
The truth is there ain't nobody fighting because
Nobody knows what to save from winter
I love them chords, they just, they just
As if there was gonna be a tempest
