everybody, _ [G#m] everybody's praying for _ peace
[C#m] But who's gonna protect us [G#m] from the police [C#m] Keep these _ chains _ [G#m] off me
_ [E] [G#m] Cause [C#m] I don't wanna be another [G#m] seed Underneath the hanging tree
[C#m] Pray _ for _ [G#m] _ _
me _ _ [C#m] Lord don't let me be another [E] seed _
Underneath the [G#m] hanging _ [C#m] tree _

The color of purple fruit [F#m] Shoot _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] Spent all those hours that don't give a damn [C#m] about you _
_ _ _ [G#m] I, _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ I got some [G#m] time _ Am I just living [F#m] today _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ Cause _ _ [C#m] the way they do my [G#m] kind I just wanna cry
And [C#m] everybody, everybody's praying for peace But who's gonna protect us from the police
