GIMME SHELTER
WRITERS MICK JAGGER, KEITH RICHARDS
Oh, a storm is threatening My very life today If I
don't get some shelter Oh yeah,
I'm gonna fade away War, children,
it's just a shot away It's just a shot away War,
children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away
Ooh, see the fire is sweeping Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet Mad bull lost its way
War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot
away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just
a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away
(2x) Rape, murder! It's just a shot away (2x) Rape,
murder! It's just a shot away
(2x) The floods is threatening My very life today Give,
give shelter Or I'm gonna fade away War,
children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away
(4x) I tell you love, sister,
it's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away (4x) Kiss away, kiss away
