Dm Am
Be who you are - if it fits in the system
Dm Am
Say what you will - but you might die if they listen
G F Am
They think in the politics of gasoline and torture
Em Am
Please only talk to me in the dark (repeat)
Write what you will - if you write it in a prison
Sing how you feel - but you might die if they listen
They think in the politics of rosaries and chains
G F Am Em
CHORUS: And it's hard to tell the right from the wrong
G F Em Am
When the right is protecting the wrong
Be who you are - but not where there are people
Reality is taught - right and wrong, there is no middle
We think in the policies of money and ourselves
CHORUS
End on Am
