[Intro] D7M  G  D7M  G

[Primera Parte]

       D7M   G  A  D7M
You can talk about your neighbor
       D7M   G  A  D7M
You can grab him by the collar
       D7M      G  A   D7M
You can hurt him only if he hollers
        A
"Let me go… let me go"

[Estribillo]

 D7M               G    A    D7M
But we all know that's old-fashioned
 D7M        G    A    D7M
And it can only lead to pain
 D7M                   G    A   D7M
Where we might end up on the corner
   A                   D7M  G  D7M  A
Taking handouts in the rain

[Segunda Parte]

       D7M   G  A        D7M
You can kill your foreign brother
       D7M       G  A  D7M
You can hurt him until he dies
       D7M       G  A  D7M
You can kill him until he never asks you why
        A
You're on his land… you're on his land

[Estribillo]

 D7M             G    A    D7M
But we all know that's all over
 D7M               G A   D7M
And that can only lead to blame
 D7M                  G    A  D7M
Where we might end up for our country
   A                   D7M  G  D7M  G  D7M
Taking handouts in the rain

[Solo] D7M  G  D7M  G  A  D7M
       D7M  G  A  D7M  G  A  D7M
       D7M  G  A  D7M  G  A  D7M  A

[Tercera Parte]

       D7M       G  A  D7M
You can trample on your sister
       D7M       G  A  D7M
You can hurt her only if she cries
       D7M       G  A  D7M
You can hurt her only if she cares
         A
With all her heart… with all her heart

[Estribillo]

 D7M            G    A    D7M
But we all know she'd be a mother
 D7M                 G    A D7M
And that could only lead to shame
 D7M                   G    A    D7M
Where she might end up for her children
   A                   D7M  G  D7M  A
Taking handouts in the rain

[Cuarta Parte]

  D7M   G  A        D7M
Teach your children stories
   D7M         G  A  D7M
You can fill them full of lies
  D7M    G    A  D7M
You can make them all despise
       A
One another… one another

[Estribillo]

 D7M          G    A    D7M
But when they all find out later
 D7M              G  A    D7M
And they call us by our rightful names
 D7M        G       A  D7M
And send us shamefully to old age
   A                   D7M
Taking handouts in the rain
   A                     Bm
Taking handouts in the rain
   A                   D7M  G  D7M  G  D7M
Taking handouts in the rain
