You shout about your freedom 
                        G C 
You bleed for weak and poor 
A 
Pouring out your conscience 
                        G C 
Of which you're really sure 
A 
But who will save democracy 
                        G C 
When all the killing's done? 
A 
Certainly not you with your 
                        G C 
Bombs and knives and guns

The bodies of the fallen

will be your epitaph

You may not laugh the longest, 
                             G C 
But you will not laugh the last 
A 
And who will save democracy 
                           G C 
When all the killing's done?
