F Fsus4 Ebsus4 Eb
[Burr]
FIt must be Fsus4nice, it must be Ebsus4nice to have
EbWashington on your sideF  
It must be niFsus4ce, it must be Ebsus4nice to have
EbWashington on your side
[Jefferson]
FEv’ry action has its equal, opposite reactions
EbThanks to Hamilton, our cab’net’s fractured into factions
FTry not to crack under the stress, we’re breaking down like fractions
EbWe smack each other in the press, and we don’t print retractions
F/CI get no satisfaction Bbm/Dbwitnessing his fits of passion
Dm7The way he primps and preens and drEb7esses like the pits of fashion
FOur poorest citizens, our farmers, live ration to ration
EbAs Wall Street robs ‘em blind in search of chips to cash in
FThis prick is askin’ for someone to bring him to task
Ebsus4Somebody gimme some dirt on this vacuous Ebmass so we can at last unmask him
FI’ll pull the trigger on him, someone load the gun and cock it
Ebsus4While we were all watching, he Ebgot Washington in his pocket
[Jefferson and Burr]
FIt must be Fsus4nice, it must be Ebsus4nice to have
EbWashington on your sideF  
It must be niFsus4ce, it must be Ebsus4nice to have
EbWashington on your side
F/CLook back at the Bbm/DbBill of Rights
[Madison]
Which I wrote
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
Dm7The ink hasn’t dEb7ried
FIt must be nice, it must be nice Ebto have
Washington on your side
[Madison]
FSo he’s doubled the size of the government
Wasn’t the trouble with much our previous gEbovernment size?
[Burr]
Look in his eyes!
[Jefferson]
See how he lies
[Madison]
Follow the scent of his eFnterprise
[Jefferson]
Centralizing national credit
And making American crEbsus4edit competitive
[Madison]
If we don’t stop it we aEbid and abet it
[Jefferson]
I have to resign
[Madison]
F/CSomebody has to stand up for the South!
[Burr]
Bbm/DbSomebody has to stand up to his mouth!
[Jefferson]
Dm7If there’s a fire you’re trying to douse
[Madison AND Jefferson]
You Eb7can’t put it out from inside the house
[Jefferson]
FI’m in the cabinet. I am complicit in
Watching him grabbin’ at power and kissin' it
EbIf Washington isn’t gon’ listen
To disciplined dissidents, this is the difference:
This kid is out!
[Madison/Burr/Jefferson]
FOh!
This immigrant isn’t somebody we chose
F/EbOh!
This immigrant’s keeping us all on our toes
FOh!
Let’s show these Federalists who they’re up against!
F/EbOh!
[Jefferson/Madison]
Southern motherfuckin’—
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
Democratic-ReF/Cpublicans!
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr/Ensemble]
Oh!
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
Let’s Bbm/Dbfollow the money and see where it goes
[Ensemble]
Dm7Oh!
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
Because eEb7very second the Treasury grows
[Ensemble]
F/COh!
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
If we Bbm/Dbfollow the money and see where it lEbeads
Get in the weeds, look for the seeds of
Hamilton’s misdeeds
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
FIt must be nice. It must be nEbice
[Madison]
Follow the money and see where it goes
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
FIt must be nice. It must be nEbice
[Jefferson]
The emperor has no clothes
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
F/CWe won’t be invBbm/Dbisible. Dm7We won’t be deEb7nied
Still
FIt must be nice, it must be nEbice to have
Washington on your side
