Capo 2

Key

Auto-scroll

Chords

The verses are almost spoken instead of sung. A VERY similar feel to Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue". Chorus and Brdge are sung. [Verse 1]

G
Well a little man with a little life

A little mind and badge that says ice

C
Got real mad when a mom of three

Hit the gas in her Honda and tried to leave

G
How dare she show such disrespect

Reacted just as you'd expect

D                              D7
He pulled his gun and shot her dead

C                                         G
Put a couple of bullets straight into her head

[Verse 2]

G
Cause that's how you handle an American traitor

A domestic terrorist, a paid instigator

C
That's what they called her, the people up top

Claimed she ran him over, claimed she should have stopped

G
He's just doing his job and following orders

Protecting our country, securing its borders

D                                          D7
They're out there saving the red white and blue

C                                                  G
So shut the fuck up, or they'll come and save you, too

[Chorus]

C                      G
Cause when the time is right

D                        G
And you want to divide a nation

C                        G
Remember what ICE stands for

D              D7   G
Idiots Craving Escalation

[Verse 3]

G
And don’t get me started on that VA nurse

A real piece of work, the worst of the worst

C
Aggressively helping a woman they shoved

Brandishing care and brotherly love

G
The only real choice was to put him down

And set an example in this festering town

D                                           D7
They’ll do whatever the hell they damn well please

C                                        G
Execute your ass while your down on your knees

[Verse 4]

G
I mean, come on man, we all saw the same thing

There were multiple cameras rolling on BOTH scene

C
And all of them show, from every angle

Nazi sypmathizers itching to tangle

G
Hidden by masks all day long

Cause even they know what they’re doing is wrong

D                                 D7
How’s it feel to have to kill someone

C                                           G
To feel like a man when your day is finally done?

[Chorus]

C                      G
Cause when the time is right

D                         G
And you want to destroy a nation

C                        G
Remember what ICE stands for

D              D7   G
Idiots Craving Escalation

[Verse 5]

G
Cause that’s where they are at at this point in time

Just killing people that won’t get in line

C
The government shitting on human rights

Goosestepping the streets and starting fights

G
Neutrality’s silence, obedience, compliance

Admit you don’t care, or stand in defiance

D                                   D7
But I wanna look my children in the eye

C                                           G
And tell them I did more than quietly stand by

[Bridge]

E7                            A7
Love carries more power than hate

E7                                                   A7
You'll be reminded of that when you reach the pearly gates

E7                                       A7
And Peter looks down with a scowl on his face

C                                            D
And says "Woah there, boy, your in the wrong place"

[Chorus]

C                      G
Cause when the time is right

D                        G
And you want to divide a nation

C                        G
Remember what ICE stands for

D              D7   G
Idiots Craving Escalation

[Final Chorus]

C                      G
Cause when the time is right

D                    G
You’re gonna pay the price

C                            G
Hell’s gonna freeze right on over

D         D7      G
Once it’s full of ICE
