The Tallest Man, the Broadest Shoulders

[01:13.27] I count the days the Great Frontier
[01:17.08] Forgiving, faced the seventh year
[01:19.82] I stand in awe of gratefulness
[01:23.58] I can and call forgetfulness
[01:26.98] And when I, and when I call
[01:30.22] The Patient, the Patient fall
[01:33.50] The Spirit, the Carpenter
[01:36.82] Invites us to be with her
[01:39.82] What have we become America?
[01:42.95] Soldiers on the Great Frontier!
[01:46.72] Carpenter and Soldier, one on one
[01:50.32] It's the battle, volunteer!
[01:54.04] Run from yourself, from your friends, from your- (The prairie, the frontier, the perfect farm, it's from here)
[02:00.03] Run for your life, for your friends, for your- (The fortress, the faker, the cornerstone, the baker)
[02:06.02] America, merica, meri- (The dancer, the fisher, audition, and the disher)
[02:11.98] Oh Illinois, Illinois, Illi- (The boxer, the fetcher, the chewing gum, dream catcher)
[02:18.12] I count the days the Great Frontier
[02:21.88] Forgiving, faced the seventh year
[02:24.65] I stand and strain to make ends meet
[02:28.41] Five Spirits on the Grand Marquee
[02:31.86] And when I, and when I call
[02:34.97] The Patient, the Patient fall
[02:38.30] The Spirit, the Carpenter
[02:41.57] Invites us to be with her
[02:45.64] There was a man at the wall
[02:50.48] He was grateful for us all
[02:55.20] I saw the Wise Woman sing
[02:59.99] She wasn't asking anything
[03:04.87] She wasn't asking anything
[03:08.55] How she made the nations sing!
[03:16.38]
[03:19.90] What have we become America?
[03:23.12] Soldiers on the Great Frontier!
[03:26.52]
[03:36.04] Run from yourself, from your friends, from your- (The mattress, the floozies, the actress at the movies)
[03:42.14] Run for your life, for your friends, for your- (The lantern, the lotion, the wind that wakes the ocean)
[03:48.03] America, merica, meri- (The Standard Edition, the architect's rendition)
[03:54.07] Oh Illinois, Illinois, Illi- (The fashion, the fevers, the house we got at Sears)
[04:00.03]

[04:36.72] Da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[04:39.69]
[04:58.86] Oh Great Fire of Great Disaster
[05:08.46] Oh Great Heaven, oh Great Master
[05:18.02] Oh Great Goat, the curse you gave us
[05:27.65] Oh Great Ghost, protect and save us
[05:37.29] Oh Great River, green with envy
[05:46.86] Oh Jane Addams, spirit send thee
[05:56.45] Given what you lost are you better off? (Oh Great Trumpet and the singers )
[06:06.08] Given what you had, has it made you mad? (Oh Great Goodman, King of Swingers)
[06:15.60] Celebrate the few. Celebrate the new. (Oh Great Bears and Bulls, Joe Jackson)
