Verse 1: 
  G       Am7   Em        D 
  An AWOL lover flies undercover 
  G            Am7        Em  D 
  Before she's crucified 
  G           Am7        Em       D 
  Cause her ambitions are their suspicions 
  G  Am7       Em             D 
  Of different culture pride 
 
Bridge: 
  D(A) 
  And the world is crying  
  Am(Em) 
  As we move along 
  D(A) 
  And the world is trying  
  Am(Em) 
  As we move along 
  D(A)                           Am(Em) 
  But they're still chopping our tongues for a song 
  Am(Em) 
  Yeaaaaaah  Yeaaaaaah Yeaaah   They're singing 
Chorus: 
  G(D)       Am(Em) 
  Chop Chop, Tongue, Toungue 
  Em(Bm)      D(A) 
  That's where we're from 
  G(D)           Am(Em)        Em(Bm)  D(A) 
  That's what we always wore 
  G(D) Am(Em)       Em(Bm)       D(A) 
  If I retell, that's where man fell 
  G(D)        Am(Em)         Em(Bm)  D(A) 
  When he put foot on floor 
 
Verse 2:(same as verse1) 
   
  A cool breeze wind blows 
 
  Breaks cynic windows 
 
  Time to obliviate 
 
  The radiation burns segregation 
 
  Leader evacuates 
 
Bridge: 
 
Chorus: 
 
Verse 3:(same as verse1) 
 
  Chop chop 
 
  Man's sin, that's where we've been 
 
  That's what we're forced to buy 
 
  We're killing lovers, sisters and brothers, 
 
  Then there's that question why
