C#m              Bm                   F#m       D
 Every man gotta right to decide his, own desti-ny,
C#m          Bm                   F#m      D
 And in this judgement, there is, no parti-ality.
C#m        Bm                    F#m               D
 So arm in arms with arms, we'll fight this little struggle,
C#m              Bm               F#m                 D
