[Verse 1]
G
I woke up from an awful dream
Bm
In June of two thousand sixteen
C G D
In a far right fake news fucked up universe
G
And though we sang the Mountain Goats
Bm
Loud enough to bruise our throats
C G D
Every year that followed still got worse and worse
C G D
And I read the warning signs of these dark and troubled times
C G D
Now I'm trying to keep my head above the water line
C
I'm losing sleep on sleeping masses
G D
Counting sheep and greenhouse gases
C
As doomsday clocks and TikToks
D
Say we're running out of time
[Chorus]
G D
But I think this world's a fixer upper
Em D C
Broken in the middle of a salvage yard
D
And I know it will be hard
G D
All we've got now is each other
Em D C
And we're overwhelmed and Wondering where to start
D
Yeah I know it will be hard
C
Maybe I'm delusional
D
But I think it could be beautiful
G D Em D
If we could only keep from losing heart
C
Then we might still
D G
Have time to build something better from the parts
[Interlude]
G D Em D
C D
[Verse 2]
G
When I was young and still naive
Bm
I thought that it was guaranteed
C G D
That things would change for better, Not for worse
G
But now the place I'm born and grown
Bm
Is pillaged like the end of Rome
C G D
It feels just like we're going ninety in reverse
C
As misinformation thrives
G D
We are fighting for our lives
C G D
Just to make sure when the smoke clears there'll be anything left
C
The road ahead feels bleak and jaded
G D
All my future hopes are faded
C D
I'm sinking, overthinking, overdrinking and bereft
[Chorus]
G D
But I think this world's a fixer upper
Em D C
Broken in the middle of a salvage yard
D
And I know it will be hard
G D
All we've got now is each other
Em D C
And we're overwhelmed and wondering where to start
D
Yeah I know it will be hard
C
Maybe I'm delusional
D
But I think it could be beautiful
G D Em D
If we could only keep from losing heart
C
Then we might still
D G D
Have time to build something better from the parts
Em D C D
Something better from the parts
[Bridge]
C
So don't mourn we will organise
G D
Stronger when we unionise
C
The sorrow shining in your eyes
G D
I'm keeping at bay
C
Don't mourn we will organise
G D
Stronger when we empathise
C
Resistance rising like the tides
G D C
To wash all the winter away
G D C
To wash it all away
[Interlude]
G D
[Verse 3]
G
So grab a spade, yeah grab a hammer
Bm
Plant some seeds and raise a banner
C G D
Roll your sleeves and rake the leaves Left by the passing storm
G
Boil the kettle, build a movement
Bm
Every day some small improvement
C G D
Ready ground to lay down all the World yet to be born
C
Lace your boots and find the shoots
Em D
Still struggling through the rotted roots
C
The saplings laid by other folks
Em D
We will turn into mighty oaks
C
The battle scars, the broken parts
Em D
Of dreams who outlasted those hearts
C
Oh everything you dream is possible It's waiting to be made
D
So my comrade
C D
Come grab a spade
[Chorus]
G D
Because this world's a fixer upper
Em D C
Broken in the middle of a salvage yard
D
And I know it will be hard
G D
I go singing for my supper
Em D C
Dragging half the contents of a salvage yard
D
Lord I know it will be hard
C
Maybe I'm delusional
D
But I think you are beautiful
G D Em D
If we could just keep from losing heart
C
We might still
D
Not rest until
C
If anybody can, we will
D C G
Build something better from the parts
