C
Invite them the fly as you cut their wings
C Dm
tell them the run as you tie their feet
C
where they'll go?
C
ask them to sing when they can't yet speak
Dm
show them how to sow where they'll never reach
C
where they'll go?
Am G Fmaj7 G Am
We, we hold a gun
Mhmm
C
Here comes the tune once again
C Dm C
another great chief with another strong hand, fences and walls
C
how can you sit when you cannot stand
C Dm C
and will be needing more from the less in your hands, fences and walls
Am G Fmaj7 G Am
We, we hold a gun
We, we hold it up
Am G
Fill up their rooms where there are no seats
Fmaj7
expect them to reach them and teach them to dream
G Am
ask 'em to see as you shut out the light
Am
expect a world in colour where it's all black and white
G
And is it protection when it never bends
Fmaj7
And all the glory that reach and suspends
G Am
ask them to come and the dance and the scene
Am
and always in rooms where the silence stings
G
and are we raising them up just to hold up their hands
Fmaj7
and enter into a world that they won't
G Am
they won't understand
Am G Fmaj7 G Am
We, we hold a gun
