[ti:my dear country] [ar:Norah Jones] [al:Live From Austin TX - Austin C] [by:] [offset:0] [00:30.94]'Twas Halloween and the ghosts were out [00:36.38]And everywhere they'd go they shout [00:40.99]And though I covered my eyes I knew [00:45.36]They'd go away [00:51.71]But fear's the only thing I saw [00:56.83]When three days later was clear to all [01:01.32]That nothing is as scary as election day [01:13.49]But the day after is darker [01:18.99]And darker and darker it goes [01:24.11]Who knows maybe the plans will change [01:28.35]Who knoes maybe he's not deranged [01:37.65]The news men know what they know but they [01:42.49]Know even less than what they say [01:45.74] [01:46.90]And I don't know who I can trust [01:50.27]For the come what may [01:56.08]'Cuz we believed in our candidate [01:58.88] [02:00.88]But even more it's the one we hate [02:05.13]I needed someone I could shake [02:08.55]On election day [02:15.67]But the day after is darker [02:21.11]And deeper and deeper we go [02:26.79]Who knows maybe it's all a dream [02:31.64]Who knows if I'll wake up and scream [02:46.00]I love the things that you've given me [03:19.74]I cherish you my dear country [03:23.99]But sometimes I don't understand [03:26.48] [03:28.41]The way we play [03:33.96]I love the things that you've given me [03:40.01]And most of all that I am free [03:44.62]To have a song that I can sing [03:48.19]On election day
