It must be nice, it must be nice to have

It must be nice, it must be nice to have 
Eb 
Washington on your side 

(JEFFERSON) 
F 
Ev?ry action has its equal, opposite reactions 
Eb 
Thanks to Hamilton, our cab?net?s fractured into factions 
F 
Try not to crack under the stress, we?re breaking down like fractions 
Eb 
We smack each other in the press, and we don?t print retractions 
F/C                   Bbm/Db 
I get no satisfaction witnessing his fits of passion 
Dm7                                Eb7 
The way he primps and preens and dresses like the pits of fashion 
F 
Our poorest citizens, our farmers, live ration to ration 
Eb 
As Wall Street robs ?em blind in search of chips to cash in 
F 
This prick is askin? for someone to bring him to task 
Ebsus4                                   Eb 
Somebody gimme some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him 
F 
I?ll pull the trigger on him, someone load the gun and cock it 
Ebsus4                         Eb 
While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket

Washington on your side 

F/C              Bbm/Db 
Look back at the Bill of Rights 

(MADISON) 
Which I wrote 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
Dm7             Eb7 
The ink hasn?t dried 
F                                Eb 
It must be nice, it must be nice to have 

Washington on your side 


(MADISON) 
F 
So he?s doubled the size of the government 
                                           Eb 
Wasn?t the trouble with much our previous government size? 

(BURR) 
Look in his eyes! 

(JEFFERSON) 
See how he lies 


(MADISON) 
                         F 
Follow the scent of his enterprise 


(JEFFERSON) 

Centralizing national credit 
                      Ebsus4 
And making American credit competitive 


(MADISON) 
                        Eb 
If we don?t stop it we aid and abet it 

(JEFFERSON) 
I have to resign 

(MADISON) 
F/C 
Somebody has to stand up for the South! 

(BURR) 
Bbm/Db 
Somebody has to stand up to his mouth! 

(JEFFERSON) 
Dm7 
If there?s a fire you?re trying to douse 


(MADISON AND JEFFERSON) 
    Eb7 
You can?t put it out from inside the house 


(JEFFERSON) 
F 
I?m in the cabinet. I am complicit in 

Watching him grabbin? at power and kissin' it 
Eb 
If Washington isn?t gon? listen 

To disciplined dissidents, this is the difference: 

This kid is out! 


(MADISON/BURR/JEFFERSON) 
F 
Oh! 

This immigrant isn?t somebody we chose 

F/Eb 
Oh! 

This immigrant?s keeping us all on our toes 

F 
Oh! 

Let?s show these Federalists who they?re up against! 

F/Eb 
Oh! 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON) 
Southern motherfuckin?? 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
             F/C 
Democratic-Republicans! 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR/ENSEMBLE) 
Oh! 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
      Bbm/Db 
Let?s follow the money and see where it goes 

(ENSEMBLE) 
Dm7 
    Oh! 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
         Eb7 
Because every second the Treasury grows 

(ENSEMBLE) 
F/C 
   Oh! 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
      Bbm/Db                             Eb 
If we follow the money and see where it leads 

Get in the weeds, look for the seeds of 

Hamilton?s misdeeds 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
F                            Eb 
It must be nice. It must be nice 

(MADISON) 
Follow the money and see where it goes 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
F                            Eb 
It must be nice. It must be nice 

(JEFFERSON) 
The emperor has no clothes 

(JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR) 
F/C            Bbm/Db  Dm7           Eb7 
We won?t be invisible. We won?t be denied 

Still 
F                            Eb 
It must be nice, it must be nice to have 

Washington on your side
