Intro: dm gm dm gm dm



Gm	   dm

In the heat of the summer

F			 a

When the pavements were burning

Dm	  c	  dm

The soul of a city was ravaged in the night

Gm	    dm

After the city sun was sinkin'





Dm	    gm	  dm

Now no one knows how it started

F		  a

Why the windows were shattered

Dm 	 c	  dm

But deep in the dark, someone set the spark

Gm	   dm

And then it no longer mattered.



Dm	 gm		  dm

Down the streets they were rumbling

F			a

All the tempers were ragin

Dm 	 c	   dm

Oh, where, oh, where are the white silver tongues

Gm		 dm

Who forgot to listen to the warnings? 



Dm	 gm	   dm

On and on come the angry

F		   a

No longer following reason

Dm	  c		  dm

And all the stores were the target now

Gm 		 dm

Where just the other day they were buyin



Dm	   gm 	  dm

Drunk with the memory of the ghetto

F			   a

Drunk with the lure of the looting

Dm		  c		 dm

And the memory of the uniforms shoving with their sticks

Gm 	   dm

Asking, "are you looking for trouble? "



Dm	  gm		  dm

"no, no, no," moaned the mayor.

F		   a

"it's not the way of the order.

Dm 	c		  dm

"oh stay in your homes, please leave us alone

Gm		dm

"we'll be glad to talk in the morning."



Dm	    gm		 dm

"for shame, for shame," wrote the papers.

F		    a

"why the hurry to your hunger? 

Dm 	 c	    dm

"now the rubble's resting on your broken streets

Gm		 dm

"so you see what your rage has unraveled."



Dm	  gm	    dm

Baricades sadly were risin

F			 a

Bricks were heavily flyin

Dm 	 c		   dm

And the loudspeaker drowned like a whisperin' sound

Gm	   dm

When compared to the angered emotions



Dm	  gm	   dm

And when the fury was over

F				  a

And the shame was replacing the anger.

Dm	   c 	  dm

So wrong, so wrong, but we've been down so long

Gm		 dm

And we had to make somebody listen

Gm	  dm	   gm dm gm dm

In the heat of the summer......
