How many miles must I walk in your shoes

'Fore I know how you feel, know how you feelin'?

How many times must I see you on the news

And how many nights must I hear you sing the blues?

Another gun man running on the loose
Dm
How many times must I turn a blind eye
Bb F
And deny what I'm seeing, deny what I'm seeing?

Another protest to another march
Incite a riot, boy - ready, set, charge
