D#  Gm  D#  Gm


[Verse]
          Dm                Gm
When they kick at your front door
Dm           Gm
How you gonna come?
          D#             Gm
With your hands on your head
          D#               Gm
Or on the trigger of your gun


[Verse]
Dm                Gm
When the law break in
Dm           Gm
How you gonna go?
D#                Gm
Shot down on the pavement
   D#                Gm
Or waiting on death row


[Chorus]
        Dm
You can crush us
        Gm
You can bruise us
           Dm            Gm
But you'll have to answer to
D#  Gm        D#       Gm
Ooh, guns of Brixton


[Verse]
    Dm         Gm
The money feels good
         Dm              Gm
And your life you like it well
    D#                     Gm
But surely your time will come
      D#             Gm
As in heaven, as in hell

[Verse]
    Dm                Gm
You see, he feels like Ivan
     Dm               Gm
Born under the Brixton sun
    D#                 Gm
His game is called survival
       D#                      Gm
At the end of the harder they come


[Verse]
    Dm              Gm
You know it means no mercy
     Dm               Gm
They caught him with a gun
   D#                    Gm
No need for the Black Maria
    D#                  Gm
Goodbye to the Brixton sun


[Chorus]

You can crush us
        Gm
You can bruise us

Ooh, guns of Brixton
