GimmeShelter 
 
Mick Jagger & Keith Richards   1969

 

Oh, a storm is threatening my very life today.

If I don’t get some shelter,

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.

 

See the fire sweepin’ out every 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, it’s just a shot away.

Rape!  Murder! It’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away.

 

The floods is threat’ning my very life today.

Gimme, gimme shelter or I’m gonna fade away.

 

War, children, it’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away.

It’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away.

 

Love, sister, it’s just a kiss away, it’s just a kiss away.

It’s just a kiss away, it’s just a kiss away,

It’s just a kiss away, it’s just a kiss away.
