[Verse 1]
Em
Look at your young men fighting
G
Look at your women crying
Em
Look at your young men dying
G D/F#
The way they've always done before
Em
Look at the hate we're breeding
G
Look at the fear we're feeding
Em
Look at the lives we're leading
G D/F#
The way we've always done before
A5 A#4 A7
E5
My hands are tied
G D/F#
The billions shift from side to side
E5
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
G D
For the love of God and our human rights
Em
And all these things are swept aside
G D/F#
By bloody hands time can't deny
E5
And are washed away by your genocide
G D A
And history hides the lies of our civil wars
B/A C/A D/A
G Bm
D'you wear a black armband when they shot the man
Em
Who said "Peace could last forever"
G Bm
And in my first memories they shot Kennedy
Em C D G Bm
I went numb when I learned to see so I never fell for Vietnam
Em G
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all that you can't trust freedom
Bm Em
When it's not in your hands when everybody's fightin'
C D
For their promised land And
[Chorus]
G Bm Em
I don't need your civil war
G Bm Em C D
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
G Bm Em
You're power hungry sellin' soldier In a human grocery store ain't that fresh
G Bm Em C D
I don't need your civil war
[Solo]
[Verse]
Em
Look at the shoes you're filling
G
Look at the blood we're spilling
Em
Look at the world we're killing
G D/F#
The way we've always done before
Em
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
G
Look at the leaders we've followed
Em
Look at the lies we've swallowed
G D/F#
And I don't want to hear no more
A5 A#4 A7
E5
My hands are tied
G D/F#
For all I've seen has changed my mind
E5
But still the wars go on and the years go by
G D Em
With no love of God or human rights 'cause all these dreams are swept aside
G D/F#
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
E5
Who carry the cross of homicide
G D A
And history bears the scars of our civil wars
[Outro]
B/A C/A D/A
