Barrel Of A Gun

It starts off with left hand muting ..
Put your index finger over the third fret ...This is the part counted
like 1 ..2 ..3 .4 .. It then starts with an Aminor..
At the start of every bar do a 'pull off' with your first finger ..
then 'hammer on' again in the same place ..
Then the left hand muting starts again ... its not very easy
to describe it .. but its easy enough if you listen to the song.
1 ..2 ..3 ..4
The lyrics are ....
Am.........
In a strange land far ---- from these shores,
You can't get any justice, no , from the barrel of a gun.
Sorry i can't remember all of the lyrics..
I hope you can work it out easily .. if not e-mail me
or if i am logged on ... try a talk request!!.

you can't meter justice
through the barrel of a gun

A car bomb they say
the S.A.S. on offence
shot in the back
makes no difference

through the barrel of a g - u - n

Shoot to kill
'till both sides have their fill
'till both sides
have their martyrs
and all the kids
have no fathers

'till your mothers have no sons
'till your battle it is won
'till both sides they have lost
all the blood that it cost
