Am                               G 
Shots split the night, a bullet lodged in his brain 
   E7                            F   G   Am 
He must have died instantly, he felt no pain 
                                 G 
A crowd quickly gathered to the feast of the gun 
E7                            F    G   Am 
Waiting for the ambulance and cops to come 
F          C            G    E7                   Am

Headlight lit the faces by the tabernacle door 
   E7                              F   G   Am 
Gazing at the bloodstains on the damp sidewalk 
          Am                  G 
As the crowd turned to go, a man was heard to say 
     E7                            F G Am 
"He must have had it comin' to him anyway" 
F           C           G    E7                             Am

Cadillacs roll through the smoggy perfume 
    Fmaj7                     Cmaj7 
The buildings are choking on oxygen fumes

Evangelists praying in rented rooms, in the afternoon 
Am       G          F           Am 
   Which way do the signposts read 
         G           F              Am 
African eyes in the sunrise 
                  G        F       Am       F         E7 
The gates of the city are rusted over and mouldering 

      Am                       G 
The violence of the evening decays into the night 
        E7                                  F G   Am 
While shadows press like moths against the neon light

Movie queues diffuse into the Cinerama haze 
        E7                            F     G   Am 
While libertines read pornozines in street cafes
