Me and Mr. Washington go forth with no real direction
F/C C/G G C/G
Dreaming of the day we drive our cars into the ocean
F/C C/G G C/G
And all the people looking on will wonder what to say
F/C C/G G C/G
And live confused about us 'til the day they do the same
F/C C/G G C/G
And they see while swimming that they are free

Reach for a solace I find only in my brother sky
F/C C/G G C/G
We are relieved to know that someday this will pass us by
F/C C/G G C/G
And it's got us feeling quite alright
F/C C/G G C/G
We have no money and we certainly have lost focus
F/C C/G G C/G
Why have we landed on a planet that's as hopeful as this
F/C C/G G C/G
We've heard the word: "Move Westward"
[Chorus]
F/C G C/G C/G C/G
Well I've thrown myself to the stra - tos - phere
F/C G C/G C/G C/G
I've thrown my heart to the atmosphere
F/C G C/G C/G C/G
And now these words are comin' outta my ears
F/C C/G E7/B C/E
"How did I end up here?"

"How did I end up here?"
Woo!
[Verse 3]
F/C C/G G C/G
Me and ol' Napoleon cry "Liberty, oh liberty"
F/C C/G G C/G
The crimes committed in your name have brought me to my knees
F/C C/G G C/G
And now I'm trembling
F/C C/G G C/G
Malcolm, Brother Malcolm there's an X upon my door tonight
F/C C/G G C/G
Wish you were here to teach this generation how to fight

Enough of all this talking
Well...

Mr. Thomas Jefferson do you have any good suggestions?
F/C C/G G C/G
I'm trying to stay hopeful, but I got all this frustration
F/C C/G G C/G
I wanna see my future get progressively better
F/C C/G G C/G
I wanna see a world where equality is what matters
F/C C/G G C/G
Let's make the call and move forward (Move forward!)
[Chorus]
F/C G C/G C/G C/G
Well I've thrown myself to the stra - tos - phere
