There [Am] goes one baby's [C] life, it's [D] such a [C] small amount
She's an American
I guess it doesn't count
6 [Am],000 children's lives were simply thrown away thus [F] without [Am] medicine
[C] inside of 30 days
[Am] in the New York
Harbor [D] where the stocks withheld it [F] was the price were paid
for [C] a safer world
world is suffering
world is suffering
world is suffering world citizen in
[Am] Madhya Pradesh
Where [C] they're building dams
They're displacing native peoples from their homes and lands
So they hunger strike
Because [D] they believe they count to lose a single [C]
life
It's such a small amount
in the [Am] name of progress [D] and democracy [Dm] the [Am] concepts
represented [C] in name only
His [Am] world is suffering
Her [D] world [Am] is suffering
Their world is suffering world [C] citizen [Am] Citizen world
citizen
and [F]
[Am] the buildings fall [Em] in the cloud of dust [Dm] and
We ask ourselves
[C] How could they hate us?
Well [Am] when we live in
[Em] Ignorance and [G]
luxury [F] while our [C] superpowers practice puppet mastery
[Am] We raise the men [G] run the
Fascist states [F] and we sell the moms
So they [G] maintain their place
[Am] We turn our backs on [C] the [G] things they done
[F] The human rights record [C] and the guns they run his [Am] world is suffering
Her world is suffering
Their world is suffering world [D] citizen
My [Am] world is suffering
Your world is suffering
Our [F] world is suffering [Dm] world citizen
Who do away [Am] with flags
Who do is proud?
[F] Remove the money from their pockets [C] screamed is sent out loud
[Em] [F] Cuz [Am] God ain't on
Outside the shoe won't fit [F] though.
They think the war is won.
That's [C] not the last of it
Disenfranchised people need their voices heard [F] and if no
[Am] stops to listen [C] lose their faith in words and
violence rises [D] when all hope is lost
[F] Who will embrace the human [C] spirit and absorb the cause?
