Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Man  thinks 'cause he rules  the earth
 He can do  with it as he please
 And if things  don't change  soon,  he will
 Oh, man  has invented his doom
 First step  was touching the moon
 Now there's a woman  on my block
 She just sit there  as the night grow still
 She say who  gonna take away  his license to kill
 VERSE 2 ***
 Now, they take him and they teach him
 And they groom him for life
 And they set him on a path where he's bound to get ill
 Then they bury him with stars
 Sell his body like they do used cars
 Now there's a woman on my block
 She just sit there facin' the hill
 She say who gonna take away his license to kill
 Now, he's hell bent for destruction
 He's afraid and confused
 And his brain has been mismanaged with great skill
 All he believes are his eyes
 And his eyes they just tell him lies
 But there's a woman on my block
 Sitting there in a cold chill
 She say who gonna take away his license to kill
 May be noisemaker,  spirit maker
Heartbreaker,  backbreaker
 Leave no stone unturned
 May be an actor  in a plot
 That might be all  that you got
 Till your error  you clearly learn
 Now he worships at an altar of a stagnant pool
 And when he sees his reflection he's fulfilled
 Oh, man is opposed to fair play
 He wants it all and he wants it his way
 Now, there's a woman on my block
 She just sit there as the night grow still
 She say who gonna take away his license to kill
