Take a walk round your city walls
Before they all fall down
Take a walk down any street
You’re gonna feel the stares of us all
Can you feel it burning
Shame is what it’s called
You’d better look at what you have created
Think of all the people who hate you
(Asus4 – A pattern:)
These are the people that made you
When you said you cared for us all
These are the people who’ll break you
Get prepared for the fall
(D – Cadd9 – G/B pattern:)
and we’ll go marching on, hear our sound,
hear our voice, we’re growing stronger
marching on, we’re not alone now
we’re keeping on, we’re marching on
G D
We’re the young who stand up, we must never be silenced
C D
we’ve gotta speak up now, for all our sakes
C G/B D
and lift our voices higher, let’s sing our song
C G/B A
keep on marching, marching, and never forget that when the
D – C – G/B
power on the right side
fights the power on the left
We have got to stand together
Forget the east and west
(Asus4 – A pattern:)
‘Cause there’s another voice crying in the ghetto
Another mouth to feed
Another heart beating in the ghetto
Another soul to set free
(D – Cadd9 – G/B pattern:)
and we’ll go marching on, hear our sound,
hear our voice, we’re growing stronger
marching on, we’re not alone now
we’re keeping on, we’re marching on
