Capo: no capo
Tuning: G C E A
Hi! So, I really wanted to play an acoustic version of M.I.A., but couldn't find
any chords on the internet, so I simply sat down with my piano and tabbed it
myself. I'm pretty sure it's about 90% accurate, or something along those lines,
but I took the liberty of mixing up the chords a little with parallel keys, so as
to not make it very repetitive.

DmStaring at the carnage
GmPraying that the sun would never Crise
Living aA#nother day in disDmguise
These fGmeelings can't be Cright
Lend me your A#courage to stand up and Dmfight
GmOn toCnight A#
DmOooGmoo.C..A#.
Stand up and Dmfight
DmThe fighting rages on and A#on
GmTo challenge me you must be Cstrong
DmI walk your land but don't A#belong
GmTwo million soldiers can't be Cwrong
DmIt's no fun but I've been here bA#efore
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your Fwar
(Not the way I pictured this, I A#wanted better things)
DmSome are scared, others killing for A#fun
I shot a mother right in front of her Fson
(Take this from my consciousness, and A#please erase my dreams)
DmFight for honor, A#fight for your life
CPray to God that Four side is right
And Gmthough we won, I Dmstill may lose
GmUntil I make it Chome to you
DmI see our mothers A#filled with tears
CGrew up so fast where Fdid those years go?
GmMemories won'tDm let you cry
GmUnless I don't reCturn tonight
DmSo many soldiers on the other A#side
I take their lives so they can't take Fmine
(Scared to make it out alive, now A#murder's all I know)
DmNobody tells me all the reasons we're A#here
I have my weapon so there's nothing to fFear
(Another day, another life, but A#nothing real to show for)
DmFight for honor, A#fight for your life
CPray to God that Four side is right
And Gmthough we won, I Dmstill may lose
GmUntil I make it Chome to you
DmI see our mothers A#filled with tears
CGrew up so fast where Fdid those years go?
GmMemories won'tDm let you cry
GmUnless I don't reCturn tonight
DmStaring at the carnage
GmPraying that the sun would never Crise
Living A#another day in Dmdisguise
These Gmfeelings can't be Cright
Lend me your A#courage to stand up and Dmfight
DmWatching the death toll rise, Cwondering how I'm Dmalive
Strangers' Gmblood on my hands, I've A#shot all I can
DmThere are no silent nights, Cwatching your brothers all Dmdie
To destGmroy all their plans with A#no thought of me
DmNo Cthought of Fme, Cno thought ofDm me
DmOhhA#hhhC..F..Gm. Dm C
DmWalk the city lonely
GmMemories that haunt are passing Cby
A murderer A#walks your street toDmnight
ForGmgive me for my Ccrimes
A#Don't forget that I Gmwas so Dmyoung
Fought so scared in the Fmname of God and Ccountry Dm
Hope you enjoyed, and feel free to let me know if you think there is any way to
make this better. 🙂
