             Am                             G6
The sons and brothers fighting for another cause 
                                  Am
Anything to give their life some meaning
                           G6
Busy with their guns and dreaming, far away from here

Fmaj7                          G6
Said they would act in self-defence 

And all the others running round so hot and bothered
Anything to give their life some meaning in the evening

Fmaj7                         G6             Am
Said they would act in self-defence with violence

Dm  Em  Am   Dm       Em  Am   Dm       Em  Am  
             Violence          Violence 

Eb5  D5  Db5  C5  A5 x2 (Actually it’s just a bass-line, 
but I think this works better…)

Dm       Em   Am                Dm       Em   Am 
Violence  breeds      violence, violence  breeds

The son and brother, when he gets home 
He gives someone some love
And mutters “Woman, you’ll never understand, 
I did what I said in self-defence with violence”

Violence breeds violence 
Violence breeds violence 
Violence breeds violence
