Intro: EBEAE
(same as verses throughout)
E
Have you ever lived down in the ghetto?
B
Have you ever felt the cold wind blow?
E
If you don't know what I mean,
A
Won't you stand up and scream?
EBE
'Cause there's things goin' on that you don't know.
Instrumental Break - EBEAE (A couple times - depends on version)
E
Too many lives they've spent across the ocean.
B
Too much money been spent upon the moon.
E
Well, until they make it right
A
I hope they never sleep at night
EB
They better make some changes
E
And do it soon.

E
They're goin ruin the air we breathe
Lord have mercy.
B
They're gonna ruin us all, by and by.
E
I'm telling you all beware
A
I don't think they really care
E
I think they just sit up there
And just get high.
