Think Before You Drink - The Voidz, Virtue 2018
C G
As a child I had no knowledge
G C
No way to understand
F Dm
My father kept me sheltered
G C
He would hold me in his hand
C G
You know I was protected
G C
With no threat from anywhere
F Dm
I drank my mother’s milk
G C
And I didn’t have a care
C G
But it didn’t last forever
G C
I was soon sent off to school
F Dm
Where the teachers gave me poison
G C
And I drank it like a fool
C G
We took pride in our past
G C
What our leaders said they fought for
F Dm
To justify the murders
G C
Of the children in the war
C G
They said that Mother Nature
G C
Couldn’t give us what we need
F Dm
And that explained the factories, and
G C
pollution in the stream
C G
They gave us all the facts
G C
Explaining economic war
F Dm
And like a fool I listened
G C
But I won’t listen anymore
[Outro]
F Dm
So before the final slaughter
C F Am
Please stop and think
F Dm
You can lead a horse to water
C F Am
But you cannot make it drink
F Dm
So before the final slaughter
C F Am
Please stop and think
F Dm
You can lead a horse to water
C F Am
But you cannot make it drink
