[Verse]
GA line was drawn in the sand
By a Cfool with a big stick and Gtiny G/F#hands
He Empromised a wall, Gtalked about greatness
Am C D* C
And dared to speak for me
[Chorus]
But EmI'm not afraid of the Gworld
CI'm not afraid of the GworldG/F#
I'm Cafraid of big money, the Gcold one perG/F#cent
AmCasting me out when I Emcan't pay the rent
CClaiming the high ground when Geverything's G/F#spent
But CI'm not Amafraid of the EmworlGd
CI'm not afAmraid of the Gworld

[Verse]
GA line was drawn in the sand
By a Cfool who claimed to be Gfreedom's last G/F#stand
EmTore up accords, arGrested the neighbours
Am C D* C
And dared to speak for me
[Chorus]
But EmI'm not afraid of the Gworld
CI'm not afraid of the GworldG/F#
I'm Cafraid of big talkers who Gact like they G/F#know
AmSacrifice, struggle and Emlife down below
CThe dizzying heights of the Gstatus G/F#quo
But CI'm not Amafraid of the EmworldG
CI'm not Amafraid of the Gworld

[Bridge]
As midCnight approaches, an Amominous cry
From the Emwolves on the hill and the Ghawks in the sky
Turn Dplowshare to sword, turn letter to lead
Now enouGgh with the discourse and Bmbring out your dead
CSleep in the knowledge that Amsomebody poorer than Emyou
Is fodder for aGnother useless war
DWaged upon children, smote from afar
By a Ghellfire volley and a Bmvictory cigar
[Chorus]
CI'm not Amafraid of the Emworld, it's Gafraid of me
CI'm not Amafraid of the Emworld, it's Gafraid of me
CI'm not Amafraid of the Emworld
It's Cafraid of Gme
It's Amafraid of Emme
It's Cafraid of Gme
It's Amafraid of Gme
