[B] I'm locked inside [C#m] a land called [D#m] foolish pride
[C] where the man is [B] always right.
He [C#m] hates to talk but loves [F#] to fight.
Is [Fm] that all right?
On [B] local days [C#m] he loves the sluts [D#m] of Haiti
[Fm] but he says that we [B] must pay [E] to take it all [D#m] away.
Is [Fm] that okay?
[B] But I'm asking you, [G#m] will you stay [E] with me
[F#] in this land where we [Fm] are free?
[F#] Don't you know I know it grows
[E] and you have to know
[F#] that one day we'll be [G#] happy.
And here [C#] I am in the future I see danger in its eyes
[D] hearts of hatred fool the land [C#m] while lovers left besides
[C] killings by the citizens [G] while music [E] solidides
I get [D] frightened I, see I get frightened
[D#m] [C#m] Baby, [B] things are [D#m] going crazy
Oh [C#] baby, [D#m] need you to stay
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[F#] Baby, these people [D#m] are so [F#] crazy
Need [B] you baby, need you to [F#] stay
Fight [C#m] for our man's rights
[D#m] [Fm] even though it's three [F#] thousand
When [E] will we end this genocide?
[F#] And [Fm] that's not right
Our [D#m] children cry
No [C#m] food to eat and our friends [D#m] fly
The [Fm] color black means it's time [F#] to die
[C#m] And nobody questions
[D#m] That [Fm] you're scared to stop the murder
[F#] I'm asking you, [E] will you stay with me
[B] in this [D#m] land where we [Fm] are free?
[B] Don't you know I know it grows
[E] and you have to know
[D#m] that one day we'll be [G#] happy.
