Dangerous Times

G C G C


[Verse 1]
       G                   C
We are living in dangerous times
              G                    
And all God's children have learned
        C
 how to fight
               G                   
Shedding their young blood, 
        C
shedding their tears
                 G                 
They can’t go on living their lives
    C
 in fear

[Verse 2]
                      G            
They’ve watched their empires rise 
    C
and fall
          G                        
Ghostly reflections through 
  C
crumbled walls
        G                       
So many innocents tried to stand 
 C
tall
           G                     
Only to be knocked down, battered 
     C
and scarred


[Chorus]
D             C      D          
 Someone will conquer, and 
        C
someone will die

D                       C        
 Some of them will just turn 
                     D
their heads and turn away
And turn away, in these dangerous 
G    C G C
times


[Verse 3]
                G             
A bustle in the kitchen to get 
        C
supper on
             G                     
The radio is playing some familiar 
C
song
                  G                
There’s a lover’s quarrel, with the
    C
 TV on
               G                   
They’re all unaware of injustice 
  C
and wrong


[Chorus]
D             C        D        
 Someone will conquer, and 
        C
someone will die
D                       C        
 Some of them will just turn 
                     D
their heads and turn away, oh...

[Bridge]
Am                                
  Don’t you think it’s time to 
    C                    G    D
tell a nation this can’t be right?
Am                                
  Or did someone kill the white 
          C                    
dove in the name of justice, or 
    G   C G C G C
sacrifice?


[Verse 4]
           G                       
All stands quiet in Tienanman 
    C
Square today
           G                     
No sign of trouble, no flowers on 
     C
the graves
          G                 
No raging voices, no sign of 
 C
changing
           G                  
No sign of anything, but their 
               C
blood-stained message remains


[Verse 5]
       G                   C
We are living in dangerous times
              G                    
And all God's children have learned
        C
 how to fight
               G                   
Shedding their young blood, 
        C
shedding their tears
                 G                 
They can’t go on living their lives
    C
 in fear


[Verse 6]
       G                   C
We are living in dangerous times
              G                    
And all God's children have learned
        C
 how to fight
               G                   
Shedding their young blood, 
        C
shedding their tears
                 G                 
They can’t go on living their lives
    C
 in fear
