Dead Diplomats

 
            C 
Outside the jewish museum 
   G 
In Washington DC 
                           C 
A Chicago man pulled out a gun 
C 
He shot a young man named Yaron 
  G 
A young lady named Sarah 
F                         C 
And he made no attempt to run 


 
C 
And they died on the ground 
C 
As he entered the building 
                           G 
And gave himself up to the guards 
           C         G 
He shouted free Palestine 
G 
As he's cuffed from behind 
    F                     C 
And now he's alive behind bars 


              G 
Now Yaron and Sarah are together in death 
  F                         C 
Before they could be wedded in life 
C 
And more people will die 
G 
Out in Palestine 
    F                        C 
For justice is blood in this fight 



    F          C 
Now out in the strip 
C 
A young soldier hears word 
                          G 
Of a couple that will not be wed 
C 
And as he takes aim 
         G 
He's got someone to blame 
        F                      C 
For the children and women all dead 



    F          C 
And eye for an eye 
C 
Till we're all good and blind 
                             G 
What more is there really to see 
       C 
It's a big teeter-totter 
   G 
Of violence and slaughter 
    F                     C 
And the recess bell never rings
