No Time For Love Chords

(ver. 1)
Christy Moore
(G)              C                                                       G      C G  
They call it the law, apartheid, internment, conscription, partition and silence
       Em                                                         D
It's a law that they made to keep you and me, where they think we belong
                 C                                             G    C G
They hide behind steel and bulletproof glass, Machine guns and spies
       Em                                                               D Dsus4 D
And you tell us who'll suffer the tear gas and torture that we're doing wrong

Ref.:

C                        G
No time for love if they come in the morning
   D                       G
No time to show tears over fears in the morning
   C                     G
No time for goodbyes, no time to ask why
                     Bm  C     D          G       C G
And the sound of the siren the cry of the mourning


              C                                             G   C G 
They came for Sacko, Vanzetti, Connolly and Pearce in their time
     Em                                                    D
They came for Newton and Seal, Bobby Sands and some of his friends
           C                                      C      G C
In Boston, Chicago, Saigon, San Diego, Warsaw and Belfast
    Em                                              D   Dsus4 D
And places that never make headlines the list never ends 


Ref.

            C                                                 G   C G
The boys in blue are only a few of the everyday cops on their beat
        Em                                                 D
The CID branchmen informers and spies do their job just as well
                    C                                              G    C G
And behind them the men who tap phones and load down computers and files
        Em                                                   D   Dsus4 D
And the man that tells them when to come to take you to your cell


Ref.

               C                                                          G   C G
So come on you people who give your brothers and sisters the will to live on
     Em                                                                         D
They say you can get used to this war but that doesn't mean that this war isn't on
                  C                                           G   C G
The fish need the sea to survive just like your comrades need you
    Em                                                                             D  Dsus4 D
And the death squads can only get through to them if first they can get through to you
