D G D Eighteen in jail and with guns in their hands A G D They were fighting for freedom, but just what is that? G D Bills to the banks, and food for the kids A G D With money for college but couldn't get in G D Made all the grades but God's taken to task A G D Lies a man in an alley wearing a mask G D Screaming she begs as the people walk by A G D But the man he just laughs, the woman she cries Chorus: D G D Well its time all you people, turn around A G D For the life we've been living, messing around G D Blood we've been spilling, bleed us dry A G D Cause the life you've been killing is your life like mine Verse -same as first-: The needle is sweet and the snow it is pure The pain I've been hiding from I'm finding a cure The night it is warm and the light it is cold The family I'm robbing, I'm calling them home Chorus: D G D Well its time all you people, turn around A G D For the life we've been living, messing around G D Blood we've been spilling, bleed us dry A G D Cause the life you've been killing is your life like mine Verse -same as first-: My heart it is thumping my veins they are blue Blood has been pumping still hasn't met you The beard that I'm growing will not fully grow Years are not coming the way I thought they would Verse -same as first-: Hoping and waiting for something to seem Like the angels in heaven, bombs on the street Hoping for love to find a new voice The song that needs singing has already been sung before Chorus -x2-: D G D Well its time all you people, turn around A G D For the life we've been living, messing around G D Blood we've been spilling, bleed us dry A G D Cause the life you've been killing is your life like mine
