Roy Harper - Black Cloud Of Islam Chords

[Intro]
Em D C D G


[Verse]
    Em                       D             G
I'm sick to the teeth of the news on the screen
                       C           D
Of hisbullah scum and jihad the obscene
       G                            C             D
Whose men plant the bombs and then leave feeling free
         Em                           D
To watch women and children be killed on T.V.

      Em                 D            G
Which satan delivers a child a death curse
                              C          D
In the name of a worn out collection of verse
      G                      C       D
I've not read the book so I cannot recite
        Em                               D
But I'd bet Salman Rushdie is just about right
                              Em     D
Underneath the black cloud of islam


[Verse]
      Em                D             G
What kind of publicity needs so much blood
                            C      D
That's not for some sad diablical god
 G                    C       D
Selling himself as a two-bit Macbeth
        Em                    D
As the experts in sentencing cousins to death

     Em                        D     G
And what kind of god can this be anyway
                                   C           D
That you have to prostrate to him five times a day
       G                       C           D
With hate in your heart and a gun in your hand
 Em                      D
Is force the only thing to understand
                              Em      D
Underneath the black cloud of islam?


[Verse]
         Em                           D              G
And the butchers who've got all this blood on their hands
                                  C              D
Are the ones who need god to be stood where he stands
  G                        C          D
Blessing this kidnapping, murder and war
      Em                        D
With books written hundreds of ages before

    Em                      D       G
And women in veils walking paces behind
                     C          D
Doesn't sit easy in my kind of mind
     G                       C         D
It speaks of oppression and no other choice
      Em                        D
That rigid compliance with the loudest voice
                              Em     D
Underneath the black cloud of islam


[Verse]
        Em                         D             G
You can put a lead bullet clean through this guitar
                                  C       D
'cos I'm not overjoyed with the story so far
  G                       C          D
Sharing a world with the nutters of god
       Em                     D
Is as good as being six feet under the sod

 Em                         D            G
Words that are written are all here to stay
                               C       D
And these are the latest there are anyway
    G                    C             D
And I am the prophet so don't believe me
         Em                     D
I'm the same as the old ones expect that I'm free
    Em                     D
To give you a piece of my mind which is this
            Em                     D
You're the worst of jehovas blind witlessnesses
           Em                       D
With your feet in the door of the deepest abyss
          D
Which is underneath
          D
Which is underneath
          D                            Em
Which is underneath the black cloud of islam
