Chords for Body Count - This Is Why We Ride (Tuska 29.6.2018)

For over 25 years, I'd really like to thank you.
I haven't had a chance to come over here this much, but I know my fucking fans are here
and I love you motherfuckers. _ _
I've always sung about crime, injustice, police, gangs, the new album Blood Lust, [D] trying to
go into the savagery of human [B] beings.
If you listen closely to [Gb] this word, to the words of this song, [D] _ hopefully you'll [Eb] understand
why we ride.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B]
I come from LA, teaching the heart and [Db] the hood.
Everyday the bullets drop, [Eb] this shit ain't Hollywood.
Don't be a leftist, brother, my brother's dead.
Cops ain't good shit, this shit's the blood.
[B] So we lay the block, and we load the [Db] gun, and we want [A] revenge, and for revenge [Eb] come_
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Once [Eb] _ everyone's motherfucking [B] died, another kid died.
Every motherfucking [Db] night, another mother_
_ [Eb]
Shadows are deep trapped, making never escape.
A place of sort of [Ebm] war, making murder [B] escape.
_ _ _ [Db] Murder's going down, I understand [Bb] why.
They remove [Ebm] hope, we sell [Eb] coke.
Making poverty, has to set each [B] other's hopes.
Family's been broken, so we came [Db] back.
A bit more of a unity, but most of [Eb] us, some of us ain't.

[Gb] If you've never_
[Eb] _ Held your best friends in [Ebm] your arms, and watched them breathe their very last breath.
_ [B]

[Db] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] And [Gb] this is how we die.
[Bbm] _ _ [A] _ _ [Eb]
[Ebm] This is all about peace.
If someone were to kill me, shoot [Gb] me in the neck.
