[F#m]Now you're a good surveyor, Dixon But I swear you'll make me mad
The West will kill us both You gullible G[A]eordie l[D]ad Yo[E]u talk of[A] liber[D]ty
[E]How can America b[A]e fr[D]ee A[E] Geordie and a ba[A]ker's b[D]oy
[Dmaj7]In the forests of the[Eadd9] Iroquois...
[F#m]Now hold your head up, Mason See America lies there
The morning tide has raised The ca[A]pes of Del[D]aware Co[E]me up and f[A]eel the
[D]sun A[E] new morning h[A]as be[D]gun An[E]other day will ma[A]ke it cl[D]ear
