Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
All  you slingers and fiends
 Hide behind your rocks
Put  down your gloves
 I'm not here to  box
This  is no showdown
 So throw down your  guns
You  see it doesn't matter
 Where you come from
You  could be from Park Ave
 Or from a park  bench
You  could be a politician
 Or a bitchy princess
But  if you're lookin' for a fist
 And you're lookin' to  unite
Put  your knuckleheads together
 Make a fist and fight
Not  to your death
 And not to your grave
I'm  talkin' bout that freedom
 Fight like a brave
Fight  like a brave - don't be a slave
No  one can tell you you've  got to be afraid
 If you're sick-a-sick n tired
 Of being sick and tired
 If you're sick of all the bullshit
 And you're sick of all the lies
 It's better late than never
 To set-a-set it straight
 You know the lie is dead
 So give yourself a break
 Get it through your head
 And get it off your chest
 Get it out your arm
 Because it's time to start fresh
 You want to stop dying
 The life you could be livin'
 I'm here to tell a story
 But I'm also here to listen
 No I'm not your preacher
 And I'm not your physician
 I'm just trying to reach you
 I'm a rebel with a mission
 Fight like a brave - don't be a slave
 No one can tell you you've got to be afraid
 Fight like a brave - don't be a slave
 No one can tell you you've got to be afraid
 You say you're running and you're running
 And you're running afraid
 You say you ran across the planet
 But you couldn't get away
 The fire in your brain
 Was driving you insane
 You were looking for a day
 In a life that never came
 So don't tell me that
 I've got to take a number
 Cause I've been to that doctor
 And believe me that's a bummer
 He's one of a kind
 Convention of the mind
 And don't forget to mention
 That it doesn't cost a dime
 Come as you like
 And leave any time
 And one more thing
 You know it doesn't have to rhyme
 Fight like a brave - don't be a slave
 No one can tell you you've got to be afraid
 Fight like a brave - don't be a slave
 No one can tell you you've got to be afraid
 Fight like a brave - don't be a slave
 No one can tell you you've got to be afraid
 Fight like a brave - don't be a slave
 No one can tell you you've got to be afraid
