Open Letter (CHORDS) by Moddi
[Verse]~
G Em D G
What’s the point waiting for the doorman to drop the key..?
G Em D G
You’ll be gone long before this evil falls asleep!
G Em D G
What’s the point waiting for a better day to come along..?
G Em D G
They will bow to their dogs before they see our reign come!
[Chorus]~
G Csus2 G
First the French decamped and left us with the garbage!
G Csus2 G
Then our flag was dyed with Islam and Arabic!
Am G D
They forgot to whom this country once belonged!
Am G D
There is always someone here to take the throne!
G D G
Traitors,.. traitors,.. traitors!
[Verse]~
G Em D G
Did you believe that they would listen just because they said they would..?
G Em D G
How naïve! They’ve always been too righteous for their own good!
G Em D G
For you know,.. power is addictive to the one it wields!
G Em D G
They have sown with evil hands and harvest our tragedy!
[Chorus]~
G Csus2 G
First the French decamped and left us with the garbage!
G Csus2 G
Then our flag was dyed with Islam and Arabic!
Am G D
They turned a blind eye to Algeria’s free men!
Am G D
We could have it all but were enslaved again!
G D G
Traitors,.. traitors,.. traitors!
[Verse]~
G Em D G
All the same we will never let them have their filthy ways!
G Em D G
We remain! These are our mountains; this is our place!
G Em D G
We will break through the door and have what’s ours all along!
G Em D G
For without us Algeria is suffering on her own!
[Chorus]~
G Csus2 G
So come the rain,.. come the wind come the hunger!
G Csus2 G
We won’t sit and wait for freedom any longer!
Am G D
We must sacrifice the arm to save the heart!
Am G D
We will split the land before it falls apart!
G Csus2 G
First the French decamped and left us with the garbage!
G Csus2 G
Then our flag was dyed with Islam and Arabic!
Am G D
But our roots go deep and our will is strong!
Am G D
We will cling onto the land where we belong!
G D G
Traitors,.. traitors,.. traitors!
