Keep The Devil Outside

	  		
  
  
Am                   F 
As for the help you called for 
Am               C 
Nobody seemed to answer 
Am                       F 
The difference in man is no more 
     Am                C        
Than being a priest or dancer 
  
  
Am                  F 
See men of power in recess 
     Am                             C 
They really don't know what they're after 
     Am                            F 
They drink to the things that they see best 
    Am                          C         C-G-Am 
And drown in the tears of their laughter

If you see fit to fight 
  
Whether you're black or white 
F                G                 C Am 
How many hope to keep the devil outside? 
F                G                 Am 
How many hope to keep the devil outside? 

  
Am                                   F 
You've been given your name and your number 
Am                         C 
Right from when you were a baby 
Am                        F 
I look at the earth and I wonder 
Am                         C         C-G-Am 
What have they done to her lately? 
  
  

D 
If you see fit to fight 
  
Whether you're black or white

F                G                 Am 
How many hope to keep the devil outside? 

  
  
Bridge: 
D9                       C 
Love dies hard, you will never hear me say 
D9                     C 
That the world will not see a better day 
  
See a better day 
  
  

D 
If you see fit to hide 
  
Mistakes of the men that died 
F                G                 C Am 
How many hope to keep the devil outside? 
F                G                 Am 
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
