America was waiting for you

America was waiting for you

Marion’s family saw his humor as absurdity

Nevertheless, he joined the local university

He studied for a third of his life
And passed the bar
Fm7 Eb Ab
He was a lawyer, working for free
Db Eb
And was fervid in speech
Fm7 Eb Ab
All of the workers that he’d protect
Db Eb
Say he practiced what he preached
[Verse 2: Left at London]
Ab
Hated the mayor, so he petitionеd to recall the guy

For he attеmpted selling off Seattle City Light
Bbm7
Two hundred thousand names on the form

Two hundred thousand names on the form
Ab
He, with the people on his side, became a congressman

Bbm7
To Washington from Washington State
Eb
To Washington from Washington State
At thirty-two
Fm7 Eb Ab
When re-elected everyone loved him

A coalition set on his downfall

Ab
He wrote a note & left his window several stories high
Ab
Landed abruptly near the car his wife was waiting by
Bbm7
They say she changed the day that he died
Eb
They say she changed the day that he died
Ab
And in the note, he said his only hope in life had been

And nothing more
Fm7 Eb Ab

Fm7 Eb Ab
Was it in anger, was it in fear
Db Eb
Or had it been in fervor?
[Outro: Left at London]

But still, we try
