Intro:
Bm G Em Bm
Bm I have seen the diamond stylus, G Cut a groove from north to south, Bm G Heard them calling from the islands for a better day, Bm One by one they tell their story, G One by one it's just the same, F#m "They've taken our leaders, G And all their believers are paralysed, Bm A Bm And now we can't turn back, somebody is watching you! Bm A Bm Don't turn round, yesterday's gone! Em Bm C And even the children are waking at midnight in tears,
Didn't anyone hear? Mother, mother, mother..."
G A C D Em Hush child go to sleep, it's only the sound of a gun, G A C D Em Hush child go to sleep, it's only the sound of a gun, Bm Em Bm G A Bm Ooooh, aaah, ooooh, aaah, Bm Looking out my bedroom window, G I remember early days, Bm G When the shot that wounded millions took our breath away, Bm But now the shadow of a gunman, G F#m With his balaclava eyes, is making the news, G Calling out the warnings on the telephone, Bm A Bm "You're in the line of fire, wish there was another way! Bm A Bm Line of fire, anything goes," Em Bm C And who is the winner, and what will the minister say,
At the end of the day? Never, never, never, never!
G A C D Em Hush child go to sleep, it's only the sound of a gun, G A C D Em Hush child go to sleep, it's only the sound of a gun,
Bm G Em Bm
Bm G This is bella soma, this is bella soma, Em Bm This is bella soma, this is bella soma, Em C This is bella soma, this is bella soma,
Mother, mother, mother...
G A C D Em Hush child go to sleep, it's only the sound of a gun, G A C D Em Hush child go to sleep, it's only the sound of a gun, G A C D Em Hush child go to sleep, it's only the sound of a gun, G A C D B Em Hush child do not weep, it's only the sound of a world on the run, C D Em Bm Em Bm Em C A D A You're hearing the sound of a gun.
