                   Bmaj7
I'm locked inside
C#m                          D#m
A land called foolish pride
Fm                                   Bmaj7
Where the man is always right
C#m                                     D#m
He hates to talk but loves to fight
Fm
Is that all right?

                   Bmaj7
On real cold days
C#m                      D#m
He loans us lots of hate
Fm                                  Bmaj7
But he says that we must pay
C#m                        D#m
To take it all away
           Fm
Is that ok?

Bmaj7                                 C#m
But I'm asking you will you stay with me
D#m                                 Fm
In this land where we are free
Bmaj7                                 C#m
And I know it's rough and you've had enough
D#m                              Fm
But one day we'll be happy

[Bridge]
C#sus4                                    F#maj7
When I look into the future I see danger in its eyes
Dmaj7                                              Amaj7
Hearts of hatred rule the land While others left outside
C                                         Gmaj7
Killing, bleeding citizen while music slowly dies
               E             D                E                 D
And I get frightened I, see I get frightened I

[Chorus]
Bmaj7                                 C#m
Oh how, oh how I need you baby
                                       D#m
You keep me from going crazy
                            Fm
I really need you baby, need you to stay
Bmaj7                             C#m
Oh how, oh how I love you baby
                               D#m
These people are so crazy
                              Fm
I really need you baby, need you to stay

Bmaj7
She always fights
C#m                                D#m
For her man but not her rights
Fm                         Bmaj7
Even though it's 3005
C#m                                   D#m
When will we end this genocide?
                         Fm
And that's not right

                Bmaj7
Her children cry
                   C#m                  D#m
No food to eat and afraid as flies
Fm                                                Bmaj7
The color black means its time to die
C#m                           D#m
And nobody questions why
                              Fm
Cause they're too scared to stop them now

Bmaj7                                     C#m
But I'm asking you will you stay with me
D#m                                  Fm
In this land where we are free
Bmaj7                                   C#m
And I know it's rough and you've had enough
D#m                            Fm
But one day we'll be happy

C#sus4                                      F#maj7
When I look into the future I see danger in its eyes
Dmaj7                                           Amaj7
Babies die before they're born and no one ever smiles
C                                                   Gmaj7
The writers and the artists, all are paid to tell us lies
                     E       D                              E             D
To keep us locked inside, they keep us locked inside

Bmaj7              C#m
I can make a change
D#m             Fm
I can start a fire
B                     C#m
Lord, make me love again
D#m              Fm
Father, fill me with desire

Bmaj7              C#m
I can make a change
D#m              Fm
I can start a fire
B                C#m
Lord, make me love again
D#m                Fm
Father, fill me with desire
