People Turn Around

D                       G             D
Eighteen and jaded with guns in their hands
          A                        G            D
They were fighting for freedom and just what is that?
D                      G            D
Bills to the banks and food for the kids
A                     G            D
Money for college but couldn't get in
D                           G        D
Made all the grades but got taken to task
     A               G         D
By a man in an alley wearing a mask
D                              G             D
Screamed and she begged as the people walked by
    A                            G         D
The man, he just laughed and the woman she cried

           D                    G     D
Well, it's time all you people, turn around
        A                       G       D
For the life we've been living, messing around
    D                              G        D
The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry
    A                       G                 D
The life we've been killing is your life like mine

    D                       G          D
The needle is sweet and the snow it is pure
    A                              G         D
The pain I've been hiding from I'm finding a cure
    D                          G           D
The night it is warm, well the light it is cold
    A                      G            D
The family I'm loving, I'm calling them home

     D                    G     D
It's time all you people, turn around
        A                       G       D
For the life we've been living, messing around
    D                              G        D
The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry
    A                       G                 D
The life we've been killing is your life like mine

   D                         G                  D
My heart it is thumping, the veins they've been blue
    A                             G               D
The blood that's been pumping, it still hasn't met you
    D                       G         D
The beard that I'm growing, not fully grown
    A                        G                  D
The years are not coming the way I thought they would
    D                      G            D
I'm hoping and waiting for something to sing
         A                     G            D
Like the angels in heaven, the bones on the street
D                  G          D
Hoping for love to find a new voice
    A                             G                 D
The song that needs singing has already been sung before

           D                    G     D
Well, it's time all you people, turn around
        A                       G       D
For the life we've been living, messing around
    D                              G        D
The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry
    A                       G                 D
The life we've been killing is your life like mine
G     D
Turn around
        A                       G       D
For the life we've been living, messing around
    D                              G        D
The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry
    A                       G                 D
The life we've been killing is your life like mine
