Verse:

Am                   G            F
I asked my mother why do you cry
                    C             Am
she said your cousin he just died
                       G            F
Well I told him not to go outside
                                 C        Am
he said he had to fight for his country's rights
                       F   G      Am
But don't you know that mo-mother
                   F    G                     Am
don't you know that we can't stop the violence
           F  G         Am
Because the war is not over
              F           G              Am
until you can feel love, peace, and hear silence
   Em               Am

Repeat the G-F-C-Am pattern:
God, my brother's been dead ever since
I didn't beleive it, but when I saw him I was convinced
Two to the head he was already dead Lord, 
I headed for revenge in the city of Port Au Prince


Repeat the Am-F-G-Am pattern:
Screaming bro-brother
don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no
Because the war is not over 
until you can feel love, peace, and silence
