1971 video

New Song about my year of birth:


(G-Gsus-C-G-D-C-G-B7-Em-D-C-C/B-Am7-D7)
I was born in the spring of 71 just about the time it all began to come undone
They taught us about freedom from the barrel of a gun
They shot us down in 1971..Break one time
They say the revolution has begun but I can't think of a single thing our side
could have won
We may have seen the future but it's the past we can't outrun mine goes back
to 1971

I left home when i was 21, there's something bout the freedom of a young man
on the run

I thought I'd be further down the line, drove about a million miles past a million
Highway signs
Guess I got my freedom, an even trade for wasted time
Blame it on the fortune of the blind

(D-C-Bm7-Bbm7-Am7-Am/C-C, C-C/B-Am7-D7)
For 39 Years, I've been on the run
Don't feel old yet but I know i'm not young
and I can't go back to 1971

They say the renaissance is sure to come but everything they said has always
proven to be wrong
Guess I still got a roof above but I don't know for how long
Costs a whole lot more then 1971

Chorus

(Am-D7-G-B7-Em-D-C-Bm7-Am7)
And I can't think about tomorrow, I just worry about today
I can't get back to a place where all my worries melt away
when will all the hard times fade away

Lead over break G-Gsus-Fwalk

Chorus
