I read an article about The Occupy Movement in the Chicago Tribune on Saturday, October 15, 2011. The verses are right from the stories told by some of the people interviewed for the piece. Recorded the song and created the video a few days later. Was happy that more than a few people asked for the chords so they could sing it in their town. Get the chord chart here.
