C              Dm  G  F                   C    Dm  G   F

Famines will be famines, banquets will be banquets

C                Dm        G  F             C    Dm  G   F

Some spend winter in a palace, some spend it in blankets.

       C               Dm          G             F

Don't wag your fingers at them and turn to walk away

        C              Dm          G              F

Don't shoot someone tomorrow that you can shoot today

Em                 F

Time to end the praying

Em                    F

Listen what they're saying

G

Get up off our knees

         C                          Dm

You can wag your finger 'till your anger's sore

  G                        F

Shake your head 'till it shakes no more

         C                          Dm

You can wag your finger 'till your anger's sore

  G                        F

Shake your head 'till it shakes no more

   C              Dm  G  F                 C    Dm  G   F

Paupers will be paupers, bankers will be bankers

C               Dm      G  F              C    Dm  G   F

Some own pennies in a jar, some own oil tankers

      C                Dm     G              F  

What may sound like tomorrow could be ours today

        C                  Dm              G              F

There's no more need for sorrow if we get off our knees to pray

Em                 F

Time to end the praying

Em                    F

Listen what they're saying

G

Get up off our knees

         C                          Dm

You can wag your finger 'till your anger's sore

  G                        F

Shake your head 'till it shakes no more

         C                          Dm

You can wag your finger 'till your anger's sore

  G                        F

Shake your head 'till it shakes no more

   C                Dm     G    F            C    Dm  G   F

Countries will be countries, borders will be borders

C                    Dm         G  F        C    Dm  G   F

Some have lost their folks at war, some have given orders

       C               Dm           G            F

Don't wag your fingers at them and turn to walk away

        C              Dm          G              F

Don't shoot someone tomorrow that you can shoot today

Em                 F

Time to end the praying

Em                    F

Listen what they're saying

G

Get up off our knees

         C                          Dm

You can wag your finger 'till your anger's sore

  G                        F

Shake your head 'till it shakes no more

         C                          Dm

You can wag your finger 'till your anger's sore

  G                        F

Shake your head 'till it shakes no more
