Chords with lyrics
[Intro]
G+G
[Verse]
G+G C majorC
When the party starts on Monday
E minorEm
Christmas starts in June
C majorC E minorEm C majorC
When no one minds I've just arrived and I'll be leaving soon
G+G C majorC
If I return with eyes half-opened
E minorEm
Don't ask me where I was
D MajorD G+G
I do my father's drugs
(G+G Chord Riff for 6 Bars)
[Verse 2]
G+G C majorC
When every revolution
E minorEm
Is sponsored by the state
C majorC E minorEm
There's no bravery in bayonets
C majorC
In tearing down the gates
G+G C majorC
If you see me with a rifle
E minorEm
Don't ask me what it's for
D MajorD G+G
I fight my father's war
(G+G Chord Riff for 6 Bars)
[Verse 3]
G+G C majorC
When hunger strikes are fashion
E minorEm
And freedom is routine
C majorC E minorEm C majorC
All in all the streets in Cleveland are named for Martin Luther King
G+G C majorC
You will see me at the protest
E minorEm
But you'll notice that I drag
D MajorD G+G
I burn my father's flag
(Harmonica Solo for 16 bars)
[Verse 4]
G+G C majorC
When the party starts on Monday

When no one minds I've just arrived and I'll be leaving soon

If I return with eyes half-opened
E minorEm
Don't ask me where I was

I do my father's drugs
