G 
In a world of blind conformity
D 
The truth is twisted and spun
C 
And raise my voice and six -string
G 
for justice to be won
D 
G 
They say that it is dangerous
D 
to change the status quo
C 
But silence in the name of wrong
G 
is something I can't do
C 
Cos it's dangerous to be right
G 
when your government is wrong
D 
But I'll strum my guitar
G 
And I'll sing my protest song
C 
With every note that I play
G 
And each word that I sing
D 
I'll fight for what is right
C 
G 
So let the protest singer sing
Try to silence dissenters
D 
With laws and propaganda
C 
But the power of the truth
G 
D 
is a force that they can't slander
G 
I'll serenade the oppressed,
D 
the voiceless and the weak
C 
For in the light of justice
G 
I'll stand and fiercely speak
C 
Cause it's dangerous to be right
G 
when your government is wrong
D 
But I'll strum my guitar
G 
And I'll sing my protest song
C 
With every note that I play
G 
And each word that I sing
D 
I'll fight for what is right
C 
G 
So let the protest singers sing
They may try to shut me down
D 
To silence my dissent
C 
But the power of the music
G 
is a force they can't prevent
D 
G 
I'll sing up for the victimised,
D 
the forgotten and the poor
C 
For unity and equality,
G 
I'll keep coming back for more
C 
Cos it's dangerous to be right
G 
when your government is wrong
D 
But I'll strum my guitar,
G 
and I'll sing my protest song
C 
With every note that I play,
G 
and each word that I sing
D 
I'll fight for what is right,
C 
G 
so let the protest singer sing
So join me in this struggle,
D 
let's raise our voices high
C 
For a world that's fair and just,
G 
where the truth will never die
D 
G 
In the face of oppression,
D 
we stand together strong
C 
With guitars and our voices,
G 
our protests will live on
C 
Cos it's dangerous to be right,
G 
when your government is wrong
D 
Well, I'll strum my guitar,
G 
and I'll sing my protest song
C 
With every note that I play,
G 
and each word that I sing
D 
I'll fight for what is right,
