The Safebreakers Daughter

	  		
verse 1 
G            C    D                 G 
In a dream I had, all the rich were kind 
                    C        D              G 
And business not so bad, and justice not so blind 
                   C                D                    G 
And, no, we needed more, ‘cause you reaped just what you sowed 
                        C                D                  G 
No one knockin’ at your door sayin’, you owed more than you owed  

 
                 C        G      D 
Oh, the banker’s boy, the boss’s son 
        G                C               D       G 
They’re hoarding all the treasures their daddy’s won 
                               C           G            D 
And they think the vault won’t break, come hell or high water 
     G           C            D             G 
They always underestimate the safebreaker’s daughter 
                 C            D             G 
They always underestimate the safebreaker’s daughter

verse 2 
                          C            D        G 
Well, they took the land away from the farmer’s daughter 
                       C             D          G 
And they took away the clay from the son of the potter 
                    C              D                G 
And with no drop of shame in their wheelin’ dealin’ eyes 
                    C             D                    G 
So when the morning came, all she left them were their lies 

 
                 C        G      D 
Oh, the banker’s boy, the boss’s son 
        G                C               D       G 
They’re hoarding all the treasures their daddy’s won 
                               C           G            D 
And they think the vault won’t break, come hell or high water 
     G           C            D             G 
They always underestimate the safebreaker’s daughter 
                 C            D             G 
They always underestimate the safebreaker’s daughter

verse 3 
                            C            D               G 
Well, they took the rights away from the children of the free 
                      C            D              G 
They said that gold today is worth more than liberty 
                        C        D                    G 
They didn’t think she’d find the stash they were stockpiling 
                      C      D               G 
She found the safe, behind a picture of them smiling 

 
                 C        G      D 
Oh, the banker’s boy, the boss’s son 
        G                C               D       G 
They’re hoarding all the treasures their daddy’s won 
                            C               G                 D 
And they think the vault is safe, but she’s smarter than they thought her 
     G           C            D             G 
They always underestimate the safebreaker’s daughter 
                 C            D             G 
They always underestimate the safebreaker’s daughter

Bridge 
G                C           G              D 
She don’t keep a dime and no bribe has ever bought her 
      G               C          D     G 
She remembers all the things her daddy taught her 
                   C       G               D 
You can’t lock her out, or put the chains about her  
    G              C         D             G 
Oh, she won’t be denied, the safebreaker’s daughter
