Standard tuning capo 7th fret.
GIf you utter a sound or make a move, we'll kill you
GThen they gathered around me
COne man took my right arm
GAnd another man took my left
DWhen the third man grabbed the front of my coat
GThen thrown in to an automobile we go
Chorus:
COh I wish I, I could describeA  
The terror in that G20 mile ride.
COh I wish I, I could describeA  
The terror in the Gbeautiful California moonlight
GIn an auto with six man and a chauffeur
GYeah these Christian patriots
CThey put fingers in my eyes and nose
GAs they subjected me to torture
DYeah the torture that a god fearing man
GIs capable of conceiving.
Chorus.
Bridge:
GYou won't kiss the American flag
CWell by god we'll make you
AWe'll ram it down your throat
GSing the Star Spangled Banner with feeling
GThey put their autos together
GSo the lamp set a sickly stage light
CFourteen defenders of this country
GAll commanding me to undress
DThey poured tar over my body and hair
GIn the absence of feathers they rubbed sagebrush instead
Chorus.
Outtro:
CMy suffering was terribleA.
But my greatest pain was GovGer Gyou.

Standard tuning capo 7th fret.

If you utter a sound or make a move, we'll kill you

Then they gathered around me

One man took my right arm

And another man took my left

When the third man grabbed the front of my coat

Then thrown in to an automobile we go

Chorus:

C A

Oh I wish I, I could describe

The terror in that 20 mile ride.

C A

Oh I wish I, I could describe

The terror in the beautiful California moonlight

In an auto with six man and a chauffeur

Yeah these Christian patriots

They put fingers in my eyes and nose

As they subjected me to torture

Yeah the torture that a god fearing man

Is capable of conceiving.

Chorus.

Bridge:

You won't kiss the American flag

Well by god we'll make you

We'll ram it down your throat

Sing the Star Spangled Banner with feeling

They put their autos together

So the lamp set a sickly stage light

Fourteen defenders of this country

All commanding me to undress

They poured tar over my body and hair

In the absence of feathers they rubbed sagebrush instead

Chorus.

Outtro:

C A

My suffering was terrible.

G G G

But my greatest pain was over you.
