Dm              Bb
Trouble in town
             C        Dm          Bb
Because they cut my brother down
           C            Dm
Because my sister can't wear her crown
        Bb              C          Dm    Bb   C
There's trouble, there's trouble in town
Dm                     Bb
Blood on the beat (Oh-oh)
      C                 Dm                 Bb
Oh my goodness, there's blood on the beat
           C             Dm
Law of the jungle or the law of the street
        Bb                C            Dm   Bb  C
There's blood on, there's blood on the beat
 
 
Bb             C
And I get no shelter
Am             Bb
And I get no peace
            C     Dm     Bb  C
And I never get released

Trouble in town (Oh-oh)
             C         Dm          Bb
Because they hung my Brother Brown
              C           Dm
Because their system just keep you down
        Bb               C          Dm    Bb   C
There's trouble, there's trouble in town
 
 
Bb             C
And I get no shelter
Am             Bb
And I get no peace
               C      Dm
And I just get more police, eh
Bb           C
And I get no comfort
Am           Bb
And I get no name
              C       Dm
Everything is gettin' strained
 
 
Dm
Best friends
 
What's that?
Bb
What's his name?
   C
X (Standby, sir)
 
Alright, is that X your middle name?
   Gm           C
Of course, it's on a vehicle ID, right? (There must be some way)
            Gm                                           C
You gettin' smart? 'Cause you'll be in a fucking car with him
 
I'm telling you
 
Fucking smartass (Or it's gonna kick off someday)
                                                   Gm
I'm asking you what the X is, is that your middle name?
 
Of course, what is it?
C                                                                            Dm
Don't come back with the What is it? fucking shit (There must be some way)
 
Talk to these fucking pigs on the street that way, you ain't talking to me that way
  Dm
I don't talk to nobody in the streets, I don't hang with nobody
 
Well, then don't come to fucking Philadelphia, stay in Jersey
 
I have family out here
                         Bb
Everybody thinks they're a fucking lawyer and they don't know jack shit
 
Are you supposed to grab me like this?
                                     Gm
Grab you up? I'll grab you any way I got to
                                                      Am
You're not protecting me while I'm trying, while I'm trying to go to work
 
Why don't you shut up?
