Am (x4)
[Verse]
Am
C
A blinding flash of white light
G
Am
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
Am
C
People running for cover
G
Am
Not knowing whether theyre dead or alive
Dm

Am
They came with their tanks and their planes
Dm
Am
With ravaging fiery flames
Dm
F
And nothing remains
C
G
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze
[Chorus]
F
C
We will not go down
Am
G
In the night, without a fight
F
C
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
Am
G
But our spirit will never die
Am
G
We will not go down
Am
In Gaza tonight
[Verse]
Am
C
Women and children alike
G
Am
Murdered and massacred night after night
Am
C
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
G
Am
Debated on whos wrong or right
Dm

Am
But their powerless words were in vain
Dm
Am
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
G
Am
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
C
Em
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze
[Chorus]

F
C
We will not go down
Am
G
In the night, without a fight
F
C
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
Am
G
But our spirit will never die
Am
G
We will not go down
Am
In Gaza tonight
F
C
We will not go down
Am
G
In the night, without a fight
F
C
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
Am
G
But our spirit will never die
F
C
We will not go down
Am
G
In the night, without a fight
Am
G
We will not go down
Am
In Gaza tonight
