Start Jamming...
[D#m] I'm [B] locked inside [C#m] a land called foolish [D#m] pride
Where [Fm] the man is [B] always right
He hates [C#m] to talk but loves to [D#m] fight
Is [Fm] that alright?
On real [B] cold days, [C#m] he loads us lots [D#m] of hate
But [Fm] he says that we must [B] pray
[E] To take it all [D#m] away
Is [Fm] that okay?
[B] But I'm asking you, will [E] you stay with me
In [F#] this land where we [Fm] are free?
Don't [F#] you know I know it's rough [E] and you've had enough
[F#] But one day we'll be [G#] happy
In the [D#m] end [C#] I'm in blue guilt or I'm deep danger in his eyes
[D] Hearts of hatred rule the land [C#m] while lovers left aside
[C] Killing plagues of citizen [Bm] while music slowly [E] dies
I get [D] frightened, I, see I get frightened
[D#m] [E]
Baby, baby, [D#m] going crazy, I really [C#] need you baby
[B] Need you to stay, oh [C#m] baby, these people [D#m] are so crazy
I really [G#] need you baby, need you to [F#] stay
For [C#m] a man for [D#m] a right
[Fm] Even though it's 3 [D#m],000 feet
When [E] will we end this [D#m] genocide?
And [Fm] that's not right, her [D#m] children cry
No [C#m] food to eat and her friends [D#m] fly
The [Fm] pall of black means it's time [F#] to die
[C#m] And nobody [D#m] questions
Cause [Fm] they're too scared to stop the man
[F#] But I'm asking you, [E] will you stay with me
[G#m] In this [D#m] land where we [Fm] are free?
[B] Don't you know I know it's rough [E] and you've had enough
[F#] But one day [B] we'll be [Fm] happy
In the end [C#] I'm in blue guilt or I'm deep danger in his eyes
[D] Babies die before they're [A] born and no one ever smiles
[C] The widows and the artists [Bm] all have paid a teller's life
To keep us [D] locked inside, to keep us locked inside
[D#m] [C#m]
Baby, baby, [B] going [D#m] crazy, I really [Fm]
need you baby
Need [B] you to stay, oh baby, [C#m]
these people [B] are so [D#m] crazy
[B] I really need you baby, need you to
[E] stay
[B] I can [C#] start a fire
[B] Don't [C#m] make me love again
[A#m] [D#m] Love and [Fm] wicked desire
[B] Make a
[F#] change
I can [D#] start a fire
[B] [C#m]
[D#m] Don't make me [A#] love again
Love and wicked desire
[F#] You move like a lion, [D] [A] I don't wanna die
[C] Hell, I need you baby, [Bm] I need you right from the start
I need [D] you tonight, I need you tonight
[D#m] [C#] [F#]
[C#m] I need you [Bm] baby
[A]
So I can let you [Bm] go, I [C] need you
[Bm]
