G What you go and do D You go and give the boy a gun C Now there ainŽt place to run to G D C AinŽt no place to run G When he hold it in his hand D He feel mighty he feel strong C Now there ainŽt no place to run to G AinŽt no place to run G One day he may come back D Repay us for what weŽve done C Then where you gonna run to G Where you gonna run C But one fine day Em C All our problems will be solved G D C Bang bang bang! WeŽll shoot him down G Give him drugs and give him candly D Anything... oh, to make him think heŽs happy C And he wonŽt ever come for us G He wonŽt ever come C But if he does Em C And if thereŽs no one else around G D C Bang bang bang! WeŽll shoot him down If he preys only on his neighbors Brothers, sisters and friends WeŽll consider it a favor WeŽll consider justice done But if he comes for you and me And we can place a gun in his hand Bang bang bang! WeŽll shoot him dead What you go and do You go and give the boy a gun Now there ainŽt no place to run to AinŽt no place to run Now weŽll all be at his mercy If he decides to hunt us down Cause there ainŽt no place to run to AinŽt no place to run If he wants the chances that you took from him And nothing that you own Then thereŽll be no place to run to ThereŽll be no place to run C And if he finds himself to be Em C A reflection of us all G D C Bang bang bang! HeŽll shoot us down C Before you can raise your eyes to read Em C The writing on the wall G D C Bang bang bang! HeŽll shoot you down C Before you can brigde the gulf between Em C And embrace him in your arms G Bang bang bang! HeŽll shoot you down
