Hallowed Ground

A

[Verse]
A
Everybody's intent on killing 
someone
A
The streets are closed and there's a
 kid on the run
    C#m                     D
The bullets scream out from gun to 
gun
A
Everybody's intent on being someone

[Verse]
A
The cold and darkness of the 
criminal dawn
A
Wrapped in blankets, gotta keep 
themselves warm
  C#m          D
A child in the arms of a teenage mum
C#m                D             
Who will be there, who will be 
       A   G                  D
the next victim of the criminal 
dawn?

[Chorus]
A                       F
Old friends meet on the edge of town
D                          
Sharing conversation, hoping 
  A                  G
things'll soon get better
          A                     
While the children meet, got the 
 F
world at their feet
            D                      
Not knowing what's around the 
 Dm
corner
       F                      
Are we living for an uncertain 
     G   A
future?

A
Down by the corner sits a broken man
A
Lives by the bottle, swears never 
again
C#m                   D
Lost his money on the dogs and gin
   A
He looks for his supper in garbage 
can

[Verse]
A
The kids hang around by the old 
school ground
A
Right by the river where the body 
was found
C#m                D
Throwing stones on hallowed ground
F#m                D             
Who will be there, who will be 
       A      G               D
the next victim of the criminal 
dawn?

[Chorus]
A                       F
Old friends meet on the edge of town
D                          
Sharing conversation, hoping 
  A                  G
things'll soon get better
          A                     
While the children meet, got the 
 F
world at their feet
            D                      
Not knowing what's around the 
 Dm
corner
       F                      
Are we living for an uncertain 
     G   A
future?
F                 G   A
Can you hear them calling?
