Verse 2 (same arrangement as Verse 1):

On the radio talk shows and the t.v.
You hear one thing again and again
How the u.s.a. stands for freedom
And we come to the aid of a friend
But who are the ones that we call our friends--
These governments killing their own?
Or the people who finally cant take any more

Interlude


Pre-chorus:

         C (x32010@1)           EmTheres (022000@1)a shadow on the faces
       C (x32010@1)             EmOf (022000@1)the men who fan the flames
       C (x32010@1)                       GOf (320003@1)the wars that are fought in places

Verse 3:

They sell us the president the same way
They sell us our clothes and our cars
They sell us every thing from youth to religion
The same time they sell us our wars
I want to know who the men in the shadows are
I want to hear somebody asking them why
They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are
