Strum
D-DU-UDU
And  now they're trying to take my life away
  forever  young  I cannot stay .
  On  every corner I can see them there
  They  don't  know my name they, don't know my kin d
  They're  after you with their promises (Promises of love)
  They're  after  you to sign your li fe a way.
  68  guns will never die
  68 guns  our battle cry,
  68  guns,  68 guns
 For living in the backstreets that's our home from home.
 The painted walls are all we've ever known
 And"The Guns Forever" that's our battle cry.
 It is the flag that we fly so high
 and every day they try to drag us down
 but I cry with anger I have done no crime.
   Up no  the terrace I can hear the crowd roa r (6 8 guns)
  And down  in the subway I can hear them whis pe r (68guns)
  Through  all the raging glory of the years
 We  never once thought of the f ears
 For  what  we'd do when the battle cry was over.
 Nothing  lasts forever is all they seem to tell you
 when  you're young
 Have  no i llusion, no disillusion
