Em                                     
They drill them to the ground
      C                             
They take away their rights
      D                          Em        
They make martyrs out of little children
Em
Give a kid a gun
C
Take away her mom,
                                    Em
They teach them how to kill when they hunger
Em            C
Kill that man, kill that girl,
D               Em
Kill anyone you want today
Em                      
Blood is on the ground,
         C
They're shooting all around
      D                     Em
They got an army bigger that D-day

Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go
Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go
Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go

       Em
We're living in a time,
       C
Where loving is so hard
D                            Em   
I can't even help my little brother
     Em
But silence is a crime,
      C
When someone needs your help
 D                 Em
God, have mercy on me today
 Em            C
War is money, war is power
  D                   Em
Blood is river of the century
 Em              C
Leave them now, let them go
 D                    Em
Set all the children free

Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go
Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go
Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go

(Em, C, D, Em - while Jimmy talks)

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     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go
Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go
Em     C      D                Em
Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go
