Across The Lines
Tracy Chapman
Key : F#m
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
F#m | E | Bm | D 
F#m | E | Bm 
D

[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

[Bridge]
---------------------
F#m                          E
   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
        F#m
Next day   it starts a riot
E
Knives and guns are drawn
Bm
Two black boys get killed
    D
One white boy goes blind





[Verse 2]
---------------------
Asus2 A       F#m
       Little black girl gets assaulted
      E
Don't no one know her name
    Bm
Lots  of people hurt and angry
D
She's the one to blame





[Outro]
---------------------
Asus2               A
     Mmmm, mmmm-mmmm
Asus2               A
     Mmmm, mmmm-mmmm

[Fade Out]
---------------------
Asus2               A
     Mmmm, mmmm-mmmm
Asus2               A
     Mmmm, mmmm-mmmm
