41 shots... cut through the night 
                          E 
You're kneeling over his body in the vestibule 
D 
Praying for his life 

            A 
Is it a gun, is it a knife 
D             A 
Is it a wallet, this is your life 
D           A 
It ain't no secret 
 D           A 
(It ain't no secret) 
D           A 
It ain't no secret 
 D           A

    D          A 
No secret my friend 
         D                         E 
You can get killed just for living in 
               A 
Your American skin

                   F#m 
Lena gets her son ready for school 
          E 
She says "on these streets, Charles 
               D 
You've got to understand the rules 
       A 
If an officer stops you 
                   F#m 
Promise me you'll always be polite, 
             E 
That you'll never ever run away 
                     D 
Promise Mama you'll keep your hands in sight" 

            A 
Is it a gun, is it a knife 
D             A 
Is it a wallet, this is your life 
D           A 
It ain't no secret 
 D           A 
(It ain't no secret) 
D           A 
It ain't no secret 
 D           A 
(It ain't no secret) 
    D          A 
No secret my friend 
         D                         E 
You can get killed just for living in 
               A
