A recent effort at a protest song, a genre that’s sadly absent these days, for the most part. My hippie youth rising again.

Lyrics

Same Shit, Different Day - Glenn Reid

A D
V1: Crazy days, now. Lord, it’s true
A D A
I can hardly bring myself to watch the news.
A D A
Seems like common sense went right out of style.
A D A
And it’s been that way for such a long, long while.

F#m D A E
Mid 8: Sending kids off to war when we know it’s oil they’re fighting for
D E
The more things change the more they stay the same…..

A Bm D A
Chorus: You can claim we fight to “free”, but that ain’t foolin’ you or me
A Bm D D A
It’s always been the same old way…,same shit..different day.

A D A
V2: We thought love would win, and war would cease
A D A
That we could march and sing our way to peace.
A D A
Full of truth..and right.. and naivete
A D A
Surely brotherhood would find a way
F#m D
But here we are now, growing old,
A E
With freedom still being bought and sold.
D E
The more things change, the more they stay the same…
