Son Volt - 'While Rome Burns’
From the album UNION
Words and Music by Jay Farrar

***Please note, Farrar walks down from G to D each time on the line "We fiddle while Rome burns," except
for on the line preceding the choruses.

[Verse 1]
D
Mountains of money
    A7sus4
Men dressed up as news
       G                 D
And we fiddle while Rome burns
        D
They're pissing away
            A7sus4
What others died to create
   G                 D
We fiddle while Rome burns
     D
Like Orwell's doublespeak
        A7sus4
They're taking their cues
       G                 Asus4
And we fiddle while Rome burns


[Chorus 1]
         Em             G
The interstates connect more than divide
    Em          Asus4      D
Free will can only survive


[Guitar break]
D A7sus4 G A7sus4 Em G Em Asus4 D


[Verse 2]
D
Time to face the music
       A7sus4
Time to make the fur fly
   G                 D
We fiddle while Rome burns
   D
Too clever by half
    A7sus4
They play the short game
       G                 D
And we fiddle while Rome burns
   D
No turning back the clock
              A7sus4
There must be hope in this hell
   G                 Asus4
We fiddle while Rome burns


[Chorus 2]
        Em                   G
And the freeways lead to the gravel roads
       Em                  Asus4   D
To the town squares and the rodeos

[Outro]
D Asus4 G D

G          D
While Rome burns
G          D
While Rome burns
G          D
While Rome burns
G          D
While Rome burns
