[Verse]
                      Em        C Em C                     G   C G
You finally found the mainstream     In the middle of your life
                  Em      C            Em                C         G     C G
You tapped into a vein Of endless gold chains Now you're locked up tight
                 Em          C Em C               G    C G
Tearing down the middle of it     Cut it right in half
                        Em           C       Em         C         G    C G 
Bobbing up and down the waves like a runaway slave on a Huck Finn raft


[Chorus]
          Em   C         Em
Take your wife Take your family
    C         G   C G                      Em
And Take your gun     Running through the woods
C                        Em       C           G      C G
And the burned out neighborhoods Looking for someone
                 Em    C               Em         
A member of your tribe a Place you can hide
     C           G     C G                B7                Em      
'Til the war has begun      'Cause in the fields before the flood
C                  Em                C      G   C G
You'll be spilling blood just like a native son


[Verse]
                Em    C Em C                   G      C G
Where you gonna run to     there ain't no underground
                  Em        C              Em
If only you could fly you'd cut across the sky
       C     G     C G                   Em    C Em
Like a rifle round      oh, who are your people
        C             G        C G                               Em
Tell me where is your homeland      'Cause they're dying side by side
       C        Em               C               G     C G
At the river of pride   where we tried to take a stand


[Chorus]
          Em   C         Em
Take your wife Take your family
    C         G   C G                      Em
And Take your gun     Running through the woods
C                        Em       C           G      C G
And the burned out neighborhoods Looking for someone
                 Em    C               Em         
A member of your tribe a Place you can hide
     C           G     C G                B7                Em      
'Til the war has begun      'Cause in the fields before the flood
C                  Em                C      G   C G
You'll be spilling blood just like a native son
          Em   C         Em
Take your wife Take your family
    C         G   C G                      Em
And Take your gun     Running through the woods
C                        Em       C           G      C G
And the burned out neighborhoods Looking for someone

You'll be spilling blood just like a native son
                         Em
In the fields before the flood
