                               F#        C#
They`re giving out guns in the ghetto,
                                 G#
They`re saying they will set you free,
C#                F#                         C#                     G#

Mamma is Daddy home?,Why are you crying all alone?,
C#                                   *   G#             C#
Grandma`s tears have turned to stone,And i`m all alone,
                        F#
Mamma isn`t Daddy back?,I`m getting scared and that`s a fact,
C#                                G#         C#
Why are we all dressed like that?,All,All in black.
