Civil War
Guns N' Roses
"What we've got here is failure to communicate
Some men, you just can't reach
So you get what we had here last week
Which is the way he wants it
Well, he gets it
An' I don't like it any more than you, men."
EmLook at your young men fighting
GLook at your women crying
EmLook at your young men dying
The Gway they've always D/F#done before
EmLook at the hate we're breeding
GLook at the fear we're feeding
EmLook at the lives we're leading
The Gway we've always D/F#done before

My hands are E5tied
The Gbillions shift from side to D/F#side
And the E5wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the Glove of God and our Dhuman rights
And Emall these things are swept aside
By Gbloody hands time can't denyD/F#
And are E5washed away by your genocide
And Ghistory hides the Dlies of our civil Awars
B/AC/A(WAH D/A)
D'you wear a Gblack armband when they Bmshot the man
Who said Em"Peace could last forever"
And in my Gfirst memories they Bmshot Kennedy
EmI went numb when I Clearned to Dsee so I Gnever fell for BmVietnam
We got the Emwall of D.C. to remind us all that you Gcan't trust freedom
When it's Bmnot in your hands when Emeverybody's fightin'
For their proCmiCsed land DDand
GI don't Bmneed your civil Emwar

EmLook at the shoes you're filling
GLook at the blood we're spilling
EmLook at the world we're killing
The Gway we've always D/F#done before
EmLook in the doubt we've wallowed
GLook at the leaders we've followed
EmLook at the lies we've swallowed
And GI don't wanna D/F#hear no more
A5 Aadd#11 A7
My hands are E5tied
For Gall I've seen has changed my minD/F#d
But still the E5wars go on and the years go by
With no Glove of God or Dhuman rights
'cause Emall these dreams are swept aside
By Gbloody hands of the hypnotizD/F#ed
Who E5carry the cross of homicide
And Ghistory bears the Dscars of our civil Awars

For example, to create a vacuum
Then we fill that vacuum
As popular war advances
Peace is closer"
