E   D          A        E 
  I swear by Almighty God 
E         D       A     E 
  To tell the whole truth   
E  D   A      E 
  And nothing but  
E   D   A   E 
............the truth   
 
E    D    C#  B 
Guns guns   
 
E    D               A/C#      E/B 
They torture all the women and children 
E            D       A/C#       E/B 
Then they've put the men to the gun 
E     D         A/C#  E/B 
'Cos across the human frontier   
E         D      A/C#   E/B 
Freedom's always on the run   
 
E    D      C#            B 
Guns guns a-shaking in terror   
E    D    C#         B 
Guns guns killing in error   
E    D    C#     B 
Guns guns guilty hands   
E    D    C#          B 
Guns guns shatter the lands   
   
A system built by the sweat of the many   
Creates assassins to kill off the few   
Take any place and call it a court house   
This is a place where no judge can stand   
   
Sue the lawyers and burn all the papers   
Unlock the key of of the legal papers   
A jury of a billion faces   
Shouted out condemned out of hand   
   
Guns guns, and nobody's kidding   
Guns guns, or foolin' around   
Guns guns, the violence is singing   
Guns guns, a silence the sound   
   
E    D    C#     B (X2) 
 
   E      D        C# B 
'N I like to be in Aferica 
E         D      C#       B 
A-beatin' on the final drum   
   E         D     C#    B 
'N I like to be in U.S.S.R.   
E      D          C#          B 
Makin' sure these things will come   
   E         D     D/C#  E/B 
'N I like to be in U.S.A. 
E          D        D/C#     E/B 
Pretending that the wars are done   
   E         D     D/C#  E/B 
'N I like to be in Europa   
E          D      D/C# E/B 
Saying goodbye to everyone   
   
E  D  A/C#  E/B (X2) 
 
E    D            A/C#           E/B 
Guns guns there's guns on the roof 
E    D            A/C#    E/B
