For liberty there is a cost;
Cmaj7 Em
It's broken skulls and leather cosh
Em D
From the boys in uniform.
Cmaj7 Em
Now you know whose side they're on,
Am Em
With backing and blessing
Am Em
From earthly gods, not Heaven.

Whatever pleasure those who get
Cmaj7 Em
From stripping skin with rhino whip
Em D
Are the kind that must be stopped
Cmaj7 Em
Before their kind take all we've got.
Am Em
With loving, with caring,
Am Em
They take great pride in working.

Wherever honesty persists
Cmaj7 Em
You'll hear the snap of broken ribs

Of any one who'll take no more
Cmaj7 Em
Of the lying bastards roar.
Am Em
In Chile, in Poland,
Am Em
Johannesburg, South Yorkshire.

A Stone's Throw Away; Now we're there.
