Em          C
(No thoughts, no prayers)
     G                     D
(Can bring back what's no longer there)
     Em         C
(The silent are damned)
     G             D
(The body count is on your hands)


[Verse 1]
Em                C
Smile for the camera
            G
Another politician bought
  D
I swear I heard another shot
Em              C
Cash another payment
               G
Red all on the canvas
     D
It's murder on the campus

 Em               C
Another press conference
               G
Nothing gets accomplished
    D
The shooter's an accomplice
Em             C
Money is the motive
                  G
The war is in the street
      D
Watch history repeat


[Chorus]
   Em           C
No thoughts, no prayers
    G                    D
Can bring back what's no longer there
    Em         C
The silent are damned
    G             D
The body count is on your hands

   Em           C
No thoughts, no prayers
    G                    D
Can bring back what's no longer there
    Em         C
The silent are damned
    G             D
The body count is on your hands

   Em           C
No thoughts, no prayers
    G                    D
Can bring back what's no longer there
    Em         C
The silent are damned
    G             D
The body count is on your hands


[Verse 2]
     Em               C
They lobby for the violence
                    G
It's a governmental shakedown
D
Welcome to my breakdown
Em              C
Bulletproof backpacks
                   G
They wanna arm the teachers
  D
I think I saw the reaper

Em                 C
Fear's good for profit
               G
Deregulate the casket
        D
They're lyin' to the masses
Em               C
How much will it take
             G                             D
Till you get buried in the coffin that you make?

Heaven's sake


[Chorus]
   Em           C
No thoughts, no prayers
    G                    D
Can bring back what's no longer there
    Em         C
The silent are damned
    G             D
The body count is on your hands

   Em           C
No thoughts, no prayers
    G                    D
Can bring back what's no longer there
    Em         C
The silent are damned
    G             D
The body count is on your hands

   Em           C
No thoughts, no prayers
    G                    D
Can bring back what's no longer there
    Em         C
The silent are damned
    G             D
The body count is on your hands


[Bridge]
Em               C         G           D
Turn off all the lights, nobody make a sound
Em       C         G        D
Ashes to ashes, we all fall down
Em            C            G              D
Are we out of time can we turn this all around?
Em            C             G
Are we out of time, will we all fall
 G        D
(All fall down)


[Outro]

Em   C   G

    G             D
The body count is on your hands

Em   C   G

    G             D
The body count is on your hands

   Em
No thoughts (No thoughts)
   C
No prayers (No prayers)
   Em
No thoughts (No thoughts)
    G             D
The body count is on your hands
   Em
No thoughts (No thoughts)

No prayers (No prayers)
   Em
No thoughts (No thoughts)
    G             D
The body count is on your hands
