We're _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
splitting, you know, if those cats can't, if you can't, we're splitting man, if those cats don't stop beating everybody up inside.
I want them out of the way man.
_ _ _ I don't like you. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Hey people, hey people, come on, let's be cool. _ _ _ _
People, _ please, there's no reason to hassle anybody, please don't do this.

Where is another, there's another scuffle.
There's the angel right there with the knife. _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ Where's the gun?
I'll roll it back and [E] you'll see it against [A#] the girl's crocheted dress.

Is there an officer [B] in there?
Is there a policeman in there?
[C] What happened here anyway?
Yeah, he pulled out a [A] gun.
He did?
Yes, the hell's angels took the gun away from him.
One of them has it now, he [C#] showed it to me. _ _ _ _
[D] And they proceeded to put him down on the ground and start kicking [Bm] him.
[C#m] And he has a couple stab wounds on his back and one over his ear.
_ _ They tried to keep him alive and when we got here the doctor checked him out and that was it.
They pronounced him dead and they pronounced him as [G] one of the [E] angels.
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _
[A] _ Why would [G] the devil take him from me?
[A] Don't die.
_ _ [Em] They're _ _ going to do everything in their power.
[A] But I can't hear his heart.
[G] Now don't worry about it.
_ [A] _ _
[E] Don't worry about it.
We're going to put him in this whirly bird and we're going to have to do that.
