[Verse 1]
     EmNow, Tommy's a good father

Of two sons and a daughter
       Em                        ABut he wakes up and he asks himself:
          G"Why even bother?"
      EmIf he cannot feed his family

The wage he's paid's insanity
Em                            A           GEvery day he's dealing with a new calamity
         EmLost his old occupation

But it wasn't immigration
Em                     A               GIt was a machine, automation that replaced him
EmPoliticians left him, corruption since the recession
      Em                                        A                 GSo he grabs his Smith and Wesson and says he'll teach 'em all the lesson like:

B D


[Chorus]
                 Em"Get down on the ground!
                               GIt's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
                                     ADon't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
                               CI'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
       B         D             EmLet it rain over Washington!
                               GIt's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
                                     ADon't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
                               CI'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
       B         D             EmLet it rain over Washington!"

    EmNow first he'd lost his pension

Sunk into depression
EmCongress is defecting
          A             GIt's been adding to the tension
EmCame back from war, and he's been post-traumatic stressing
Em                           A               GCan't afford his medicine he took for his aggression
   EmHe needs help, relying on this system that rejects him
Em                          A                 GTook away his benefits, but left him with his weapon
         EmBought a one way ticket

He's entering the thicket
   Em                              A                GTo do the only thing that he's thinking will make a difference like:

B D


[Chorus]
                 Em"Get down on the ground!
                               GIt's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
                                     ADon't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round
                               CI'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
       B         D             EmLet it rain over Washington!
                               GIt's a stick up! Nobody make a sound!
                                     ADon't even hiccup, or I'm emptying a round!
                               CI'm done playing games, so I'm going down in flames!
