Intro Am , Em , F, C, G x2 (play intro once before each verse)
A5 E5
The future teaches you to be alone
F5 C5
The present to be afraid and cold
F5
So if I can shoot rabbits
C5 G5
Then I can shoot fascists
Bullets for your brain today
But we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper
Turns me into a gutless wonder
D5
And if you tolerate this
A5 G5
Then your children will be next
D5
And if you tolerate this
A5 G5
Then your children will be next
Will be next, will be next, will be next
Gravity keeps my head down
Or is it maybe shame
At being so young
And being so vain
Holes in your head today
But I'm a pacifist
I've walked La Rambas but
Not with real intent
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next, will be next, will be next

D5 A5
And on the streets tonight
G5
An old man prays
D5 A5
With newspaper cuttings
G5
Of his glory days
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next, will be next, will be next
