Invite them the fly as you cut their wings
B C#m
tell them the run as you tie their feet
B
where they'll go?
B
ask them to sing when they can't yet speak
C#m
show them how to sow where they'll never reach
B
where they'll go?
G#m F# Emaj7 F# G#m
We, we hold a gun
Mhmm
B
Here comes the tune once again
B C#m B
another great chief with another strong hand, fences and walls
B
how can you sit when you cannot stand
B C#m B
and will be needing more from the less in your hands, fences and walls
G#m F# Emaj7 F# G#m
We, we hold a gun
We, we hold it up
G#m F#
Fill up their rooms where there are no seats
Emaj7
expect them to reach them and teach them to dream
F# G#m
ask 'em to see as you shut out the light
G#m
expect a world in colour where it's all black and white
F#
And is it protection when it never bends
Emaj7
And all the glory that reach and suspends
F# G#m
ask them to come and the dance and the scene
G#m
and always in rooms where the silence stings
F#
and are we raising them up just to hold up their hands
Emaj7
and enter into a world that they won't
F# G#m
they won't understand
G#m F# Emaj7 F# G#m
We, we hold a gun
