           Norah Jones - My dear country
            (album: Not Too Late, 2007)



Original key: Fm

Intro: , , , , , , 



                               
'Twas Halloween and the ghosts were out,
                           
And everywhere they'd go, they shout,
                   
And though I covered my eyes I knew,
          
They'd go away.



                       
But fear's the only thing I saw,
                              
And three days later 'twas clear to all,
                  
That nothing is as scary as election day.



                   
But the day after is darker,
                   
And darker and darker it goes,
               /7M  (b5)
Who knows, maybe the plans will change,
    Esus9   D6        C#4/7(11)  C  B7     (i can hear bass goes like that)
Who knows, maybe he's  not      deranged.



                                 
The news men know what they know, but they,
                         
Know even less than what they say,
               
And I don't know who I can trust,
                     
For they come what may.



                          
'cause we believed in our candidate,
                         
But even more it's the one we hate,
             
I needed someone I could shake,
         
On election day.



                   
But the day after is darker,
                  
And deeper and deeper we go,
               /7M   (b5)
Who knows, maybe it's all   a   dream,
      C#4/7(11)               
Who knows if I'll wake up and scream.

I love the things that you've given me,
                      
I cherish you my dear country,
                
But sometimes I don't understand,
           
The way we play.



                              
I love the things that you've given me,
                      
And most of all that I am free,
              
To have a song that I can sing,
          
On election day.
