Key: E minor, Time: 6/8, Tempo: 164

Intro: 
~~~~~~
||Em  |    |Bm   |Em   || (X 4)

 Mmm...  


Verse 1: (0:18-)

|Em           |               |Bm7           |Em  |
   Walking the street with her naked feet
   So  full of  rhythm  but I  can't find the beat
   Snapping her heels          clicking her toes

|Em           |F#/A#    |B        |     |
 Everybody knows   just  where she goes
|B/A   |      |
           Ah,

Chorus 1: (0:39-)
~~~~~~~~~
|G   |  |D/F#           |             |Em    D|   |
 Fear,   fear -she's the mother of vio-lence
|C              G/B|          Am7    |G     |   |
 making me tense to watch the way she breed

|D/F#           |             |Em    D/E|   Em 
 Fear, she's the mother of vio-lence
   |C         G/B|         C6     |Bm/D  |   |
You know self-de- fense is all you need
|      |               |Cmaj7  |(X 4 bars)
   It's getting hard to breathe

|Bm/D |     |       |             |Cmaj7 |(X 4 bars)
        It's getting so hard to be-lieve
|Bm/D |      |D        Em |D7/F#   |G   |Gsus4|G   |   ||
        to be-lieve in any-thing at all


[Verse 2] (1:26-)

|Em         |              |D         |Em  |
   Mouth all dry            eyes blood shot
      data   stored  on  a  microdot
  Kicking the cloud with my moccasin shoes

|Em    |F#/A#  |B   |    |
   T.V. dinner, T.V. news
|B/A   |        |
    Ha, ha, 'cos


[Chorus2] (1:47-)

|G   |  |D/F#           |             |Em    D|  
 Fear,   fear -she's the mother of vio-lence
      |C             G/B|          Am7    |G    |   |
 don't make any sense to watch the way she breed

|D/F#           |             |Em    D|   |
 Fear, she's the mother of vio-lence
|C              G/B|          Am7    |Bm/D |   
 making me tense to watch the way she feed
    |    |       |Cmaj7      |     |   |   |
 The only way you know she's there

|Bm/D      |      |       |      |Cmaj7 |
     Is the subtle flavour in the air
         |       |       |
  Getting hard to breathe
|Bm/D |          |D     Em    |D7/F#       |
       hard to be-lieve in any-thing at all

|G   |Gsus4|G   |   


Coda: (2:34-)

      ||Em  |   |D   |Em  || (X 3)
   but  fear...

||Em  |   |D   |Em  || (X 4)
