If you don't know about this Occupy song, please check it out and share: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq3BYw4xjxE

I haven't had a chance to try these chords myself, but they look reasonable.


Key: E capo: 9 chording: G


Intro:
G, Gsus4, G, Em7 x 2

G D G D C Em7
1. We come here, gather ‘round the stage / The time has come for us to voice our rage


G D G D Am7 Em
Against the ones who trapped us in a cage / To steal from us the value of our wage


G D G D C Em7
2. From underneath the vestiture of law / The lobbyists at Washington do gnaw


G D G D Am7 Em
At liberty; the bureaucrats guffaw / And until they are purged we won’t withdraw


Refrain Am7 D G C(+2)
We’ll occupy the streets, we’ll occupy the courts / We’ll occupy the offices of you

G C D G, Gsus4, G, Em7 x2
‘Til you do / The bidding of the many, not the few


3. Our nation was built upon the right / Of every person to improve their plight
The laws of this republic they rewrite / And now the few own everything in sight


4. They own it free of liability / They own, but they are not like you and me

Their influence dictates legality / And until they are stopped we are not free


Refrain

5. You enforce your monopolies with guns / While sacrificing our daughters and sons
Well, certain things belong to everyone / You’re thievery has left the people none


6. So take heed of our notice to redress / We have little to lose we must confess
Your empty words leave us unimpressed / A growing number join us in protest


Refrain


7. You can’t divide us into sides / And, from our gaze you cannot hide
Denial serves to amplify / And our allegiance you can’t buy


8. Our government is not for sale / The banks do not deserve a bail
We won’t reward those who fail / we’ll not move ‘til we prevail


Refrain

Repeat Refrain


C D G
We are the many, you are the few.
