There's a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland 
         C                     G7                    C 
And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me

There's a big gapping hole in my chest now, where my heart was 
                     G7                     C 
  And a hole in the sky, where God used to be

There's a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland

There's a well where the water's so bitter nobody can't drink 
                                           C7         F 
And no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I can't talk 
            C                     G7                C 
Oh, they  know that 'm dying why nobody crying for me 
 
              G                       C 
My American dream, fell apart at the seams 
                     G                          C 
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means

     C                      G7                  C 
and bankers are taking the homes and the land away 
           C                    C7                 F 
There's a young boy closing his eyes tonight in a Heartland 
          C                       G7                       C 
who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he can't pay 
 
               G                       C 
His American dream, fell apart at the seams 
                     G                          C 
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means.
