Homophobia

Chumbawumba


Tom: Gm

Gm
Up behind the bus-stop
       F
in the toilets of the street
          Gm          F
there are traces of a killing
       Gm
on the floor beneath your feet
Gm
Mixed in with the piss and beer
    F
are bloodstains on the floor
         Gm              F
From the boy who got his head kicked in
  Gm
a night or two before


[Chorus]
Gm         F
Homophobia the worst disease
    Gm                 F
You can't love who you want to love
   Gm
in times like these
Gm         F
Homophobia the worst disease
    Gm                 F
You can't love who you want to love
   Gm
in times like these


[Verse 2]
       Gm
In the pubs clubs and burgerbars
F
breeding pens for pigs
Gm         F
Alcohol testosterone
    Gm
and ignorance and fists
Gm
Packs of hunting animals
F
roam across the town
     Gm           F
They find an easy victim
         Gm
and they punch him to the ground


[Chorus]
Gm         F
Homophobia the worst disease
    Gm                 F
You can't love who you want to love
   Gm
in times like these
Gm         F
Homophobia the worst disease
    Gm                 F
You can't love who you want to love
   Gm
in times like these


[Verse 3]
    Gm
The siren of the ambulance
    F
the depan of the cops
Gm                F
Chalk to mark the outline
          Gm
where the boy first dropped
  Gm
Beware the holy trinity;
F
church and state and law
    Gm              F
For every death the virus
          Gm
gets more deadly than before


[Chorus]
Gm         F
Homophobia the worst disease
    Gm                 F
You can't love who you want to love
   Gm
in times like these
Gm         F
Homophobia the worst disease
    Gm                 F
You can't love who you want to love
   Gm
in times like these
