Tracy Chapman - Across the Lines: chords

Chorus:
F#m         E      Bm        D
Across the lines, who would dare to go
F#m         E                Bm
Under the bridge, over the tracks
                 D
That separates whites from blacks
F#m               E            A
Choose sides, or run for your life
Bm           D       E
Tonight the riots began
F#m                  E
On back streets of America,
Bm                         D    A
They killed the dream of America

F#m                                E
Little black girl gets assaulted, ain't
no reason why
     Bm                         D
Newspaper prints the story and racist
tempers fly
     F#m                       E
Next day it starts the riot, knives
and guns are drawn
     Bm                          D
Two black boys get killed, one white boy goes blind

Chorus

Little black girl gets assaulted
Don't no one know her name
Lots of people hurt and angry
She's the one to blame

Chorus:
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks
Choose sides
Run for your lives
Tonight the riots begin
On the back streets of America
They kill the dream of America
