Manic Street Preachers - If You Tolerate This Your Children guitar tab

IF YOU TOLERATE THIS YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE NEXT

[Intro] Am Em F C [X2]

Am Em

The future teaches you to be alone

F C

The present to be afraid and cold

F C

'So if I can shoot rabbits then I can

G

shoot fascists'

Am Em

Bullets for your brain today

F C

But we'll forget it all again

F

Monuments put from pen to paper

C G

Turns me into a gutless wonder

Dm

And if you tolerate this

Am G

then your children will be next

Dm

And if you tolerate this

Am G

then your children will be next,

will be next, will be next, will be next

Am Em F C

Am Em

Gravity keeps my head down

F C

Or is it maybe shame

F C G

At being so young and being so vain

Am Em

Holes in your head today

F C

but I'm a pascifist

F

I've walked La Ramblas

C G

but not with real intent

Dm

And if you tolerate this

Am G

then your children will be next

Dm

And if you tolerate this

Am G

then your children will be next,

will be next, will be next, will be next

[Solo] Dm Am G [X2]

Dm Am

'And on the street tonight-

G

An old man plays

Dm Am G

with newspaper cuttings of his glory days

Dm

And if you tolerate this

Am G

then your children will be next

Dm

And if you tolerate this

Am G

then your children will be next,

will be next, will be next, will be next
