Capo: 5th fret 
 
INTRO: (Cadd9) (G) (Am) (D) 
 
(G)  Don't wanna read the paper 
(Em) I don't like bad news 
(Am) Last night a man got shot 
Out(D)side the house of blues 
(G)  I'd like to ignore it 
(Em) I'd like to just pretend 
(Am) That the reason for it 
Is something (D)I can comprehend 
 
(G)  I don't listen to the radio 
Last (Em)time it made me cry 
(Am) Two boys went crazy 
(D)  Fifteen kids died 
(G)  And I don't know there familys 
I don't (Em)ask them how there going 
There on the (Am)other side of the world 
But its (D)way to close to home 
 

[Refrão]
(Cadd9) I got something to say 
And I thought it (G)might be worth a mention 
If your (Am)not pissed off at the world 
Then your (D)just not payin' attention 
(Cadd9) You can turn off the TV 
(G) And go about your day 
(Am) but just cause you don't see it 
It don't (D)mean it's gone away, hey 
 
INTRO 
 
We (G)don't talk to our neighbours 
They've got (Em)funny colored skin 
(Am) We see 'em out on the sidewalk 
But we (D)don't invite 'em in 
(G)  We only eat when were hungry 
And we (Em)throw the rest away 
While (Am)babys in Cambodia 
Are (D)starvin' everyday 
 
We (G)risk our lives, we hit our wives 
We act (Em)like everything is funny 
We (Am)hide our pain while we go insane 
We (D)sell our souls for money 
We (G)curse our mums, we build our bombs 
We (Em)make our children cry 
We (Am)watched the band while Vietnam 
Just (D)watched their children die 
 
CHORUS 
 
(Cadd9)  (G)  It won't go a(Am)way  (D) 
It won't go a(Cadd9)waaaaaay  (G) 
It won't go a(Am)way, it won't go away, it won't go a(D)way 
It won't go a(Cadd9)waaaaaay  (G) 
It won't go a(Am)way, it won't go away, it won't go a(D)way 
Make it go a(Cadd9)way  (G)  (Am)   (D)
