Verse 1
(G major) (A minor) (C major) We (G major) live (A minor) in (G major) a
political world (C major) (A minor)
Where love (G major) ain't got (A minor) no place (F major)
We're (A minor) living (C major) in times
When men (D major) commit crime, (C major) (A minor)
crime ain't got no face (G major)
(C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor)
(C major) We're (A minor) livin' up a little girl,
wisdom has flown (G major) to jail
(C major) It (A minor) rots in our cells,
it's guided (G major) as hell
(A minor) No one to pick up (G major) the trail
This (A minor) is a political world
Where mercy walks the plank
Life's in a mirror
Death dis (G major) appears
Up (A minor) the steps to the (E minor) nearest (G major) bank,
(E minor) (C major) Lord (A minor) (C major)
(A minor) We're here in this political world, (G major)
what (A minor) we can see and feel (C major)
(G major) There's (A minor) no one to check,
it's all a (G major) stack deck
We (A minor) don't know (E minor) for sure (G major) if it's real
It's (A minor) a political world,
courage is a thing of (C major) the past (A minor)
(G major) Houses (A minor) are haunted,
children are wanted
The next day could be your (G major) last
(A minor) The (G major) (A minor) next day could be your last
The next day could be your
last (C sharp minor) (F sharp major) (C sharp minor) (F sharp major)
(C sharp minor)
Here (A minor) in this political world
The cities are blown to steel
Little by little you're caught (G major)
up in the middle
And you (A minor) never know why (G major) (C major)
This (A minor) here is a political world
where peace ain't welcome (G major) at all
Turn (A minor) away from the door
to want us some more
or put you up against the wall
We live in a political world,
(G major) it's (A minor) gotta be heard (G major) to hear (C major)
(G major) Climb (A minor) into the frame,
shout out God's name
You never know who it is,
courage is a thing of (C major) the (A minor) past (G major) (A minor)
(G major) The (A minor) next day could be your last
The (C major) (A minor) next day could be your last
The next day could be your last (C sharp minor) (F sharp major) (C sharp minor)
(B flatdim) (A minor) (C major) (A minor) (C major) (G major) (A minor)
(C major) (A minor)
I'm going (C major)
