EmThey (022000@1)drill them to the ground
      C (x32010@1)                           
They take away their rights
      D (xx0232@1)                        Em (022000@1)      
They make martyrs out of little children
EmGive (022000@1)a kid a gun
CTake (x32010@1)away her mom,
                                    EmThey (022000@1)teach them how to kill when they hunger
Em (022000@1)          CKill (x32010@1)that man, kill that girl,
D (xx0232@1)             EmKill (022000@1)anyone you want today
Em (022000@1)                    
Blood is on the ground,
         CThey're (x32010@1)shooting all around
      D (xx0232@1)                   EmThey (022000@1)got an army bigger that D-day

Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go
Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go
Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go

       EmWe're (022000@1)living in a time,
       CWhere (x32010@1)loving is so hard
D (xx0232@1)                          Em (022000@1) 
I can't even help my little brother
     EmBut (022000@1)silence is a crime,
      CWhen (x32010@1)someone needs your help
 D (xx0232@1)               EmGod, (022000@1)have mercy on me today
 Em (022000@1)          CWar (x32010@1)is money, war is power
  D (xx0232@1)                 EmBlood (022000@1)is river of the century
 Em (022000@1)            CLeave (x32010@1)them now, let them go
 D (xx0232@1)                  EmSet (022000@1)all the children free

Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go
Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go
Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go

This song is also dedicated to all the kids living in this society
Who are being deprived of their basic rights
The right to a peaceful home,
The right to an education,
The right to innocence,
The right to health and food,
To love and be loved,
The right to a joyful youth,
And my heart goes out especially to my nephews

Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go
Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go
Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmBlood, (022000@1)blood, blood everywhere we go
