There's something happening here
            E                A
And what it is ain't exactly clear
          E                   A
There's a man with a gun over there
        E                     A
Telling me that I've got to beware

I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
A                   C  (D)  E   E  A  E  A
Everybody look what goin' down

There's battle lines being drawn
And nobody's right, if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind ...

(refrão 2)
              E           D
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
A                   C  (D)  E   E  A  E  A
Everybody look what goin' down

 E                       A    A G E
What a field day for the heat ooooh
  E                       A      A G E
A thousand people in the street  ooooh
         E                   A     A G E
Singin' songs, and carryin' signs  ooooh
        E                   A     A G E
Mostly say "hooray for our side"  ooooh ...

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step outta line, the men come, and take you away
