KRIS KRISTOFFERSON - Don't Let The Bastards Get You Down guitar chord
Don't Let the Bastards Get You Down--Kris Kristofferson
written by Kris Kristofferson
From the album "Broken Freedom Song: Live From San Fransisco"
NOTE: This is a different version than the one on the "Third World Warrior" album. I
think it's in a different key, and I know it has different lyrics. It's a bit more
contemporary than the original version.
INTRO: G
G
Rightious killin' in the name of freedom
C
We been down that sorry road before
G G/B
They let us hang around a little longer than we should've
C D
It's too late to fool us anymore
G
We've seen the ones who kill the ones with vision
C
Cold blooded murder right before your eyes
G G/B
Today they hold the power and the money and the guns
C D
It's gettin' hard to listen to their lies
CHORUS:
C G
And I just gotta wonder what my Daddy woulda done
C G
If he'd seen the way they'd turned his dream around
C G
I gotta go by what he told me
C C/B
Try to tell the truth and stand your ground
C D G
Don't let the bastards get ya down
(SPOKEN)
G
Bombin' Bagdad back into the stone age, 'round the clock
C
Non-stop for 40 days, killed 'em in their homes and on their highways
G
Now after a decade of cripplin' sanctions we're talkin' about goin' back in there
C D
And doin' it all over again, fightin' terrorism

Don't let the bastards get ya down
