We Will Not Go Down (Song for Gaza)

Intro:
Am x4
Am C
A blinding flash of white light
G Am
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
Am C
People running for cover
G Am
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive
Dm Am
They came with their tanks and their planes
Dm Am
With ravaging fiery flames
Dm F
And nothing remains
C G
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze
F C
We will not go down
Am G
In the night, without a fight
F C
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
Am G
But our spirit will never die
Am G
We will not go down
Am
In Gaza tonight
Am C
Women and children alike
G Am
Murdered and massacred night after night
Am C
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
G Am
Debated on who’s wrong or right
Dm Am
But their powerless words were in vain
Dm Am
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
G Am
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
C Em
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

F C
We will not go down
Am G
In the night, without a fight
F C
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
Am G
But our spirit will never die
Am G
We will not go down
Am
In Gaza tonight
F C
We will not go down
Am G
In the night, without a fight
F C
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
Am G
But our spirit will never die
F C
We will not go down
Am G
In the night, without a fight
Am G
We will not go down
Am
In Gaza tonight
