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
