             Bmaj7 
I'm locked inside 
  C#m                 Ebm 
A land called foolish pride 
          Fm            Bmaj7 
Where the man is always right 
            C#m               Ebm 
He hates to talk but loves to fight 
            Fm 
Is that all right? 

             Bmaj7 
On real cold days 
   C#m              Ebm 
He loans us lots of hate 
       Fm                Bmaj7 
But he says that we must pay 
            C#m               Ebm 
To take it all away 
        Fm 
Is that ok? 

        Bmaj7               C#m 
But I'm asking you will you stay with me 
        Ebm               Fm 
In this land where we are free 
        Bmaj7               C#m 
And I know its rough and you've had enough 
        Ebm               Fm 
But one day we'll be happy

       C#sus4                     F#maj7 
When I look into the future I see danger in its eyes 
Dmaj7                                Amaj7 
Hearts of hatred rule the land While others left outside 
C                               Gmaj7 
Killing, bleeding citizen while music slowly dies 
          E          D            E          D 
And I get frightened I, see I get frightened I 


Bmaj7                     C#m 
Oh how, oh how I need you baby 
                       Ebm 
You keep me from going crazy 
                  Fm 
I really need you baby, need you to stay 
Bmaj7                     C#m 
Oh how, oh how I love you baby 
                    Ebm 
These people are so crazy 
                  Fm 
I really need you baby, need you to stay 

Bmaj7 
She always fights 
        C#m             Ebm 
For her man but not her rights 
     Fm             Bmaj7 
Even though it's 3005 
             C#m          Ebm 
When will we end this genocide? 
               Fm 
And that's not right 

            Bmaj7 
Her children cry 
           C#m               Ebm 
No food to eat and afraid as flies 
          Fm                      Bmaj7 
The color black means its time to die 
      C#m            Ebm 
And nobody questions why 
                  Fm 
Cause they're too scared to stop them now 


        Bmaj7               C#m 
But I'm asking you will you stay with me 
        Ebm               Fm 
In this land where we are free 
        Bmaj7               C#m 
And I know its rough and you've had enough 
        Ebm               Fm 
But one day we'll be happy 

       C#sus4                     F#maj7 
When I look into the future I see danger in its eyes 
Dmaj7                              Amaj7 
Babies die before they're born and no one ever smiles 
    C                                Gmaj7 
The writers and the artists, all are paid to tell us lies 
           E        D                  E        D 
To keep us locked inside, they keep us locked inside 

 
Bmaj7         C#m 
 I can make a change 
Ebm            Fm 
 I can start a fire 
B             C#m 
 Lord, make me love again 
Ebm            Fm 
 Father, fill me with desire 

Bmaj7         C#m 
 I can make a change 
Ebm            Fm 
 I can start a fire 
B             C#m 
 Lord, make me love again 
Ebm            Fm 
 Father, fill me with desire
