[Chorus]
Bb F
Now you can tear a building down
Eb Ab
But you can’t erase a memory
Bb F
These houses may look all run down
Eb Ab
But they have a value you can’t see
[Verse]
F
This is my neighborhood
F
This is where I come from
F
I call this place my home
F
You call this place a slum
F
You wanna run all the people out
F
This what you’re all about
F
Treat poor people just like trash
F
Turn around and make big cash
[Chorus]
Bb F
Now you can tear a building down
Eb Ab
But you can’t erase a memory
Bb F
These houses may look all run down
Eb Ab
But they have a value you can’t see
[Verse 2]
F
Last month there was a fire
F
I saw seven children die
F
You sent flowers to their family
F
But your sympathy’s a lie
F
Cause every building that you burn
F
Is more blood money that you earn
F
We are forced to relocate
F
From the pain that you create
[Chorus]
[Verse 3] (Same as verses)
[Chorus]
You’ve got to fight
You’ve got a right
To fight for your neighborhood!
