[Chorus]
---------------------
F#m                E
   Across the lines
Bm              D
  Who would dare to go
F#m
   Under the bridge
E               Bm
 Over the tracks
                     D
That separates whites from blacks
F#m
   Choose sides
E                 A
Run for your lives
Bm              D        E
  Tonight the riots begin

   On the back streets of America
Bm                          D
  They kill the dream of America

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Asus2 A       F#m
       Little black girl gets assaulted
E
Ain't no reason why
    Bm
Newspaper prints the story
    D
And racist tempers fly

Knives and guns are drawn

One white boy goes blind

She's the one to blame
