phil ochs - in the heat of the summer كلمات الأغنية

intro: dm gm dm gm dm

gm dm
in the heat of the summer
f a
when the pavements were burning
dm c dm
the soul of a city was ravaged in the night
gm dm
after the city sun was sinkin’

dm gm dm
now no one knows how it started
f a
why the windows were shattered
dm c dm
but deep in the dark, someone set the spark
gm dm
and then it no longer mattered.

dm gm dm
down the streets they were rumbling
f a
all the tempers were ragin
dm c dm
oh, where, oh, where are the white silver tongues
gm dm
who forgot to listen to the warnings?

dm gm dm
on and on come the angry
f a
no longer following reason
dm c dm
and all the stores were the target now
gm dm
where just the other day they were buyin

dm gm dm
drunk with the memory of the ghetto
f a
drunk with the lure of the looting
dm c dm
and the memory of the uniforms shoving with their sticks
gm dm
asking, “are you looking for trouble?”

dm gm dm
“no, no, no,” moaned the mayor.
f a
“it’s not the way of the order.
dm c dm
“oh stay in your homes, please leave us alone
gm dm
“we’ll be glad to talk in the morning.”

dm gm dm
“for shame, for shame,” wrote the papers.
f a
“why the hurry to your hunger?
dm c dm
“now the rubble’s resting on your broken streets
gm dm
“so you see what your rage has unraveled.”

dm gm dm
baricades sadly were risin
f a
bricks were heavily flyin
dm c dm
and the loudspeaker drowned like a whisperin’ sound
gm dm
when compared to the angered emotions

dm gm dm
and when the fury was over
f a
and the shame was replacing the anger.
dm c dm
so wrong, so wrong, but we’ve been down so long
gm dm
and we had to make somebody listen
gm dm gm dm gm dm
in the heat of the summer…

- phil ochs
