Bm A Weapons and guns are they really our rights Bm A Laws written a long time ago Bm A No one could imagine the sight Bm A Of so many dead on the floor
[Chorus 1]
Bm A Hey God if you’re still there Bm A Would you please come down Bm A Hey God if you’re still there Bm F#m Would you please come down

[Verse 2]
Bm A So what do you really have in mind for us now Bm A We know that you’re not on our side Bm A A few words of wisdom — written down Bm A Ain’t enough to sustain us anymore
[Chorus 2]
Bm A Hey God if you’re still there Bm A Would you please come down Bm A Hey God if you’re still there Bm Would you please come down F#m G A We can’t take it no more

Bm A Some cannot live inside the law Bm A Not much has changed here at all Bm A I see the sun’s really going down Bm A This is not the Garden of Eden for sure
[Chorus 3]
Bm A Hey God if you’re still there Bm A Would you please come down Bm A Hey God if you’re still there Bm Would you please come down A Bm We can’t take it here anymore A Bm We can’t take it no more
