BLACK BOYS ON MOPEDS  Sinead O'Connor



[D]Margaret That[A]cher on T[G]V
Shocked by [A]the [D]deaths that took [A]place in Bei[G]jing
[A]Seems [D]strange that she [A]should be of[G]fended
The [A]same [D]orders are [A]given by [G]her
I've said this before now
You said I was childish and you'll say it now
Remember what I told you
They hated me, they will hate you
CHORUS: [G]England's [A]not the [D]mythical [A]land of [G]Madame George and roses
        It's the [D]home of po[A]lice who kill [G]black boys on mopeds
        And [D]I love my [A]boy, and [G]that's why I'm leaving
        I don't [D]want him to be [A]aware that there's [G]any such thing as grieving
(hold G for extra measure, then A on last beat before verse)
Young mother down at Smith Field, 5 a.m.
Looking for food for her kids
In her arms she holds three cold babies
And the first word that they learned was "Please"
These are dangerous days
To say what you feel is to dig your own grave
Remember what I told you
If you were of the world they would love you
CHORUS
"Ooo" to fade over verse chords, end on D
