Song Lyrics: Bitcoiner Blues

The chord progression is the same for all parts: C, Am(add11), G7, C7, C, Dm, Em, C.

The acoustic guitar solo also follows these chords. The tempo is such that performing the entire song takes 3:45–4:00.

Verse 1:
Sometimes buy high
Sometimes sell low
Never quite know
Where the market winds blow
But one man’s loss
Is another man’s gain
Here in cyberspace
Liberty shall reign

Verse 2:
The mining is hard
And it takes lots of juice
But that’s to make sure
That the spending’s no deuce
Once it’s in hand
They can’t steal away
The wealth is all yours
Just keep your private keys safe

Chorus:
Bitcoiner Blues
The song of the hour
Sing along and
Fight the legacy power
Buildin’ from scratch
A new paradigm
Savin’ the world from
The state and its crimes

Verse 3:
Roads made of silk
And markets for death
That’s the landscape
In this new Wild West
The first they took down
But they’ve been replaced
Thank Dread Pirate Roberts
For leading the way

Verse 4:
As for exchanges
Only trust if you dare
Your coins aren’t safe there
Let the user beware
Decentralize transactions
You’ll be better off
Or HODL your coins
And play some rounds of golf

Chorus

Acoustic Guitar Solo

Verse 5:
Investors are coming
With new ideas to try
Driving their Lambos
The limit’s the sky
SEC may stop some
IRS may stop more
But someday we’ll stop them
And show them the door

Verse 6:
New coins are programmed
And old coins bite dust
Let markets decide which
Currency to trust
Maybe someday
Bitcoin will fade away too
But ’till then I’ll sing
These Bitcoiner Blues

Chorus

Outro:
Bitcoiner Blues
The song of the hour
Sing along and
Fight the legacy power
Maybe someday
Bitcoin will fade away too
(But ’till then I’ll sing
These Bitcoiner Blues)x2
