Versos:
Em
A lot of things occur each day
D Em
We've got to live with on our way
There's so much misery on the screen
C D Em
With commercials in between
Em
And the Russians won't be so late
D Em
Uncle Sam don't wanna wait
No matter if you're black or white
C D Em
You never ever had a right
Ponte:
B Em
And look up to the eternal skies
B Em
See warfare even there
B Em
What once has been a paradise
C B
Now destruction and despair
Versos:
In other worlds the children die
Lacking food ill from a fly
Oppressed by troops to tame their land
It's all the same again
If any man is free on earth
Then tormentors steal his birth
They slam gun butts in his face
And leave his woman choked in mace
Ponte:
So stand up for our human rights
Push back this pest of hate
Raise you voice pass on the light
Unite! it's not too late
[Refrão]Refrão:
Em
How many tears flow away
C
To become a sea of fears
Am
How many hearts are torn apart
C B
Till another torment starts
C D
But before the world
B Em
Turns into a sun
C D
All cruelty and violence
B Em
On earth will be dead and gone
Ponte:
So stand up for our human rights
Push back this pest of hate
Raise you voice pass on the light
Unite! It's not too late
[Refrão]Refrão:
How many tears flow away
To become a sea of fears
How many hearts are torn apart
Till another torment starts
But before the world
Turns into a sun
All cruelty and violence
On earth will be dead and gone
