Em                                  Bm           C
There's blood in the dust where the city's heart beats
    Bm                                          C
The children play games that they take from the streets
Em                               Bm      C
How can you teach when you've so much to learn
        G             D             Bm
May you turn, May you turn, May you turn,
        C             G             C
May you turn, May you turn, May you turn,
        Bm         C
In your grave, New world

Em                                 Bm        C
There is hate in your eyes, I have seen it before
Bm                                     C
Planning destruction behind the locked door
Em                      Bm             C
Were you the coward who fired the last shot
        G            D            Bm
May you rot, May you rot, May you rot,
        C            G            C
May you rot, May you rot, May you rot,
        Bm         C
In your grave, New world

Em                                  Bm             C
There is death in the air, with the lights growing dim
    Bm                                  C
All those who survive, sing a desperate hymn
Em                           Bm      C
Pray that god grants you one final request
        G             D             Bm
May you rest, May you rest, May you rest,
        C             G             C
May you rest, May you rest, May you rest,
        Bm         C
In your grave, New world
