Primeiro acorde: C 8 acordes identificados
[Intro ]
C Dm7 G C C
[Verso 1]
C Dm7
They walk in with empty pockets, and a campaign smile
G C
Leave with eight figures and a whole new lifestyle
C Dm7
No money when they came, millions when they leave
G C
Lobbyists paid for all of it, thats what I believe
Em Am
Taxpayers dollars stretched thin, and then some more
Dm G7 C
While the big deals get signed, behind a closed door
Dm7 G C
Talking in circles, about circles again
[Verso 2]
C Dm7
They stand at the podium, lights in their eyes
G C
Smiling like saints while the numbers dont lie
C Dm7
Another investigation, another delay
G C
Another closed door while the cameras stray
Em Am
They all know carving, up the pork is a must
Dm G7 C
While lecturing on ethics, talking about trust
Dm7 G C
Talking in circles, about circles again
[Verso 3]
C Dm7
And some of that money, doesnt go where they claim
It buys the silence, of the ones without a name
C Dm7
Girls and boys who learned, what power can do
G C
Paid to keep their mouths shut, so the circle stays true
Em Am
The same ones who preach, a moral high ground
Dm G7 C
Speak in circles, so the truth wont be found
Dm7 G C
Talking in circles, about circles again
[Verso 4]
C Dm7
They raise the debt ceiling, then cry about the cost
G C
Blame the last crowd, for the money they lost
C Dm7
Investigations, that start with a bang
G C
End with a shrug, and some campaign slang
Em Am
They lecture on ethics, from a private jet seat
Dm G7 C
Then hide the receipts, when the numbers dont meet
Dm7 G C
Talking in circles about, circles again
[Verso 5]
C Dm7
And when it is time for voting, the rules get in the way
G C
Voice votes and amendments, that bury what they say
C Dm7
In the committee a yes, on the floor a no,
G C
or the other way around, who is to know
Em Am
They write the procedures, so the trail runs cold
Dm G7 C
Then claim they stood for you, while their votes were sold
Dm7 G C
Talking in circles about, circles again
[Refrão]
F G
Theyre talking in circles about circles again
Em Am
Same old excuses, same neat, polished spin
F G
Round and round on the same worn track
Em Am
Pointing the finger, never looking back
F G
Fraud in the fine print, lies in the speech
Em Am
Bad characters hiding, just out of reach
F G C
Talking in circles about, circles once more
Dm7 G C
While the truth is always, just outside the door
[Ponte]
Dm G
Its not left or right when the patterns the same
Dm G
Just both teams playing the same dirty game
Dm G
Many of them dress for their job in a suit
Dm G
Smiling for the voters, then off with the loot
Em Am
Round and round, while the people get burned
Dm7 G7 C
Waiting for someone who is, actually concerned
[Refrão]
F G
With a moral compass, that spins like a clock
Em Am
Offended beyond words, when someone may mock
F G C
Theyre talking in circles about, circles again
Em Am
Tired of the theater, tired of the spin
F G
Characters optional if the polling looks grand
Em Am
Integritys optional when the lobbyists stand
Outro
F G7 C
Talking in circles about, circles no more
F G7 C
Time to show them all, out the door
Dm7 G7 C
