G#
Invite them the fly as you cut their wings
G# A#m
tell them the run as you tie their feet
G#
where they'll go?
G#
ask them to sing when they can't yet speak
A#m
show them how to sow where they'll never reach
G#
where they'll go?
Fm D# C#maj7 D# Fm
We, we hold a gun
Mhmm
G#
Here comes the tune once again
G# A#m G#
another great chief with another strong hand, fences and walls
G#
how can you sit when you cannot stand
G# A#m G#
and will be needing more from the less in your hands, fences and walls
Fm D# C#maj7 D# Fm
We, we hold a gun
We, we hold it up
Fm D#
Fill up their rooms where there are no seats
C#maj7
expect them to reach them and teach them to dream
D# Fm
ask 'em to see as you shut out the light
Fm
expect a world in colour where it's all black and white
D#
And is it protection when it never bends
C#maj7
And all the glory that reach and suspends
D# Fm
ask them to come and the dance and the scene
Fm
and always in rooms where the silence stings
D#
and are we raising them up just to hold up their hands
C#maj7
and enter into a world that they won't
D# Fm
they won't understand
Fm D# C#maj7 D# Fm
We, we hold a gun
