Em
Sadr City blues, seen it on the news
Kids today get their lights turned down
G Am
You gotta shine on
Shine on
Sadr City blues, there is no excuse
Right your name down, get your name crossed out
You gotta shine on
Shine on
Sitting at the back on your very own
This ain't Jack or ain't wack, this is real life
You gotta shine on
That's right, shine on
C E
You can't wait for the Sun to be born
D
To hold you, keep you warm
Am
The desert has its ice storm
C E
It's too late for the flowers to arrive
D
On the road of the cross the knives
Am
When you're looking for just war

The television lights our lives

Sitting in the back on your very own
You get divorced over the telephone

To hold, to keep you warm

On the road of the cross and knives
When you're looking for just war
You got to shine, shine, shine, shine on
To make it through the Sadr City blues
