Start Jamming...
[F] There was a man named Mahatma Gandhi, would not bow down, he would not fight.
He knew the deal was down and dirty, nothing wrong could make it right [Bb] away.
But he knew his duty, and the price [F] he had to pay.
Just another [C] holy man, tried to [Bb] make a stand, by God [F] they killed him.
Another man from Atlanta, Georgia, named Martin Luther King, shook the land like rolling thunder.
Made the bells of freedom ring [Bb] today, with a dream of beauty, that they could [F] not burn away.
Just another [C] holy man, dared to [Bb] be his friend, by [F] God they killed him.
[G] [Bb]
[F]
[C] [Bb]
By God [F] they killed him.
The only son of God Almighty, the Holy One called Jesus Christ.
Heal the lame and fed the hungry, all his love gave [Bb] away.
On the road to glory, where the story never [F] ends.
Just the holy son [C] of man, will never [Bb] understand, by God [F] they killed him.
Sing about Mahatma Gandhi, sing of Martin Luther King.
Sing of Jesus Christ Almighty, sing of brothers Kennedy.
