Tv Suicides

G                                                 Bm
I can’t believe we stand aside and watch these people cry
           Bm                                       D
Shedding crocodile tears saying we can’t interfere this time.
G                                             Bm
Standing for their rights became their daily suicide

Bm                                                      D
But getting blown away by the tyrant of the day are we blind
Bm                  G      Bm                      G
Your conscience is clear, there’s no threat round here
Bm                    G              D
Keep on spreading the fear and the lies


Bm   G        G           D
The television sears my eyes
Bm         G                 Bm
Their only mission was sacrifice
Bm          G                   G               D
With your permission they might make it out alive
Bm              G
You should have listened
Bm                  G                 D
Yeah you should have listened last time
G                               Bm
Now you sit alone and watch their families cry
Bm                                                      D
Trying to understand why they’ve fallen in a land far away
G                                       Bm
I know the time will come and for your crimes you’ll pay
Bm                                  D
You never once delivered, my soul begins to shiver at your name
Bm                    G
They’re caught in the crossfire
Bm                     G
Never thought they would die there
Bm              G               D
As the light in their eyes starts to fade

Bm   G         G           D
The television sears my eyes
Bm           G               Bm
Their only mission was sacrifice
Bm           G                   G           D
With your permission they might make it out alive
Bm                     G
You should have listened
Bm                   G
Yeah you need to listen
Bm                 G              D
You need to listen, this time….
        Bm
This time
