F                     Am       F                      Am
I’ll sink slowly into cement, running round the city square 
F                         Am          F                                    Am
I’ve always felt a little different, now I can breath in the anger on the dirty air 
F                                        Am
grubby beauty blocked out by streets and time 
F                              Am             F           Dm        Am
painted their slogans on the silhouette of my skyline 

[Chorus]
                  E7    Dm    G
It is not enough
                                   Dm        Am
to be quiet on the train back home 
                        Dm         Am
A change is gonna come, 

our country’s mind can’t stay this closed 


[Verse 1]
*Finger Picking*
F                        Am          F                            
Enter the decade fearing failing and our heart starts beating in time 
F                                       Am       F                    Am
with the white noise and the ranting and raving, their official party line
F                         Am     F                                             Am
we must respond we need a fight, decide how the destitute will survive and then die 


[Chorus]
                  E7    Dm    G
It is not enough
                                   Dm        Am
to be quiet on the train back home 
                        Dm         Am
A change is gonna come, 

our country’s mind can’t stay this closed 

[Verse 2]
Dm                                                    Am
So wipe that shit-eating grin off your punch-able face 
Dm                                                           Am 
these people are human beings that you’ll destroy and displace 
Dm                                                                                              
when you sit in Kirribilli House and there’s no one else around do you know just to keep your job
Am
you’re putting bodies in the ground 
Dm                                             Am
drowning refugees at sea, kiss babies screaming vote for me 
Dm                                  Am
I’ll take you to the future via the 1950s 

E7 Dm Am


Dm                                                        Am
Were we supposed to feel hope when you said you’d stop the boats? 
Dm                                   Am                            Dm                            
cause that’s some fucking evil shit, politicizing killing kids, drip feeding fear into our brains,
Am
new leader clearly insane 
Dm                      Am 
gonna change the culture in our cultured minds 
Dm                               Am
start a war with an alibi we can justify


[Chorus]
                  E7    Dm    G
It is not enough
                                   Dm        Am
to be quiet on the train back home 
                        Dm         Am
A change is gonna come, 

our country’s mind can’t stay this closed 



[Outro]
                  E7    Dm    G
It is not enough
                                   Dm        Am
to be quiet on the train back home 
                        Dm         Am
A change is gonna come, 
              Am    Am   Am   Am   Am
our country’s mind can’t stay this closed
