Mo[Emaj7]ther mother, there's too many [C#m7]of you crying
Br[Emaj7]other, brother, brother, there's far too many [C#m7]of you dying
You know we've [A]got to find a way
To bring some [A/B]lovin' here today, hey

Fa[Emaj7]ther, father, we don't need to [C#m7]escalate
Wa[Emaj7]r is not the answer, for only love can [C#m7]conquer hate
You know we've [A]got to find a way
To bring some [A/B]lovin' here today, hey

{c:CHORUS #1:}
Pi[F#m7]cket lines and [B7]picket signs
Don't p[F#m7]unish me with [B7]brutality
[F#m7]Talk to me, oh [B7]can't you see
Oh what's go[E]ing on, what's g[C#m]oing on
Yeah, wha[E]t's going on, ah, what's g[C#m]oing on
Ah[Cmaj7]hh....                [B7]  

Mo[Emaj7]ther, mother, everybody [C#m7]thinks we're wrong
Ah but [Emaj7]who are they to judge us
Simply 'cos our [C#m7]hair is long
Ah you know we've [A]got to find a way
To brind some under[A/B]standing here today

{c:CHORUS #2:}
Pi[F#m7]cket lines and [B7]picket signs
Don't p[F#m7]unish me with [B7]brutality
[F#m7]Talk to me, oh [B7]can't you see
Oh what's go[E]ing on, I'll tell you what's g[C#m]oing on
Yeah, wha[E]t's going on, ah, what's g[C#m]oing on
Ah[Cmaj7]hh....                [B13]Right on, right on, right on,
