Verse 1: 
Am 
You are born into this world, 
        G                    Am 
Looking down the barrel of a gun. 
Am                     G 
And those who hold the gun, 
            Am 
Want you to work fast and die young. 
Am 
And if you don't work, 
G 
If you don't obey, 
        Am 
They'll make you live in fear 'til your dying day. 
      G 
Those who govern hold the gun, 
   Am 
To your head. 
     G                                     Am 
With religions, corporations 'proud of the blood, 
Am 
They have shed. 
 
Chorus 1: 
C 
Whether it's God or the Bomb, 
C 
It's just the same. 
Am                           G

Verse 2: 
Am 
And the corporate snakes coming in to feed, 
   G                           Am 
On that pathetic fact known as human greed. 
     G 
Skin and bone being raked over those hot coals, 
     Am 
This dump never seems to give time to human soul. 
Am                                   G 
And if all those things that we have learnt, 
G                      Am 
No time for questions, you'll just get burnt. 
NC       G                Am 
(Listen) You'll …just get burnt.

It's just the same. 
Am                           G 
It's only fear under another name.

Verse 3: 
Am 
And those words crush you flat, 
          G 
Like your skull's under a brick. 
    Am 
And the fear's so damn strong, 
        G 
That it makes you sick. 
Am                                   G 
And you can see right through those eyes, 
G                                 Am 
That make you fear, that make you lie. 
Am 
And you're taught to hold high, 
        G 
Yet you wonder why. 
G    Am 
Dumb values forced upon you by the, 
G       Am 
Living lie.
