[Part 1]
G D A D
On the 19th day of April in 1995,
D D G* A* D
there was the worst car bombing near two hundred people died.
G D A D
In Oklahoma City on Wednesday 9 o'clock,
D D A D
they struck the federal building, took out near half the block.
G D A D
They thought it was an earthquake, made trees and light poles bend,
D D A D D
and folks thought they were seeing the world come to an end.
[Part 2]
G D A D
It blew the building open, it lay there like a wound,
D D A D
twisted pipes and wires, silent like a tomb.
G D A D
Yeah, they blew the building open and blew folks' lives apart,
D D A D
firefighters mumbling and wondering where to start.
[Part 3]
G D A D
They rushed out some survivors but soon could only cry
D D A D
and place the dead in caskets and ask the dear Lord why.
G D A D
Prayers for the missing, for daughters and for sons,
D D A D
prayers for the souls of those who'd never hurt a one.
[Part 4]
G D A D
Kevin Small was lucky: his clock needed repair,
D D A D
he overslept an hour, his three-year old son was spared.
G D A D
But for too many others the news was not so bright,
D D A D
one baby got her picture in the paper, then she died.
[Part 5]
G D A D
The President he promised they'd pay dearly for the blast
D D A D
and all across the country flags were flying at half mast.
G D A D
Shock soon turned to anger, "Who'd do this?" people said
D D A D
and everyone suspicious had a price upon their head.
[Interlude]

[Part 6]
G D A D
They thought it was some Arabs and folks began to scream:
D D A D
first tighten up the borders, then hang 'em from a tree.
G D A D
This proves what we've been saying 'bout our fair and gentle land
D D A D
nobody who did this could be an American.
[Part 7]
G D A D
The FBI got busy, some drawings and some names,
D D A D
and everyone was looking for someone else to blame.
G D A D
Some fifty hours later, early Friday day,
D D A D
they found the man they wanted in jail ten miles away.
[Part 8]
G D A D
A so-called right extremist, a patriot government foe,
D D A D
an expert on explosives and white as driven snow.
G D A D
When people heard the news they found it hard to understand.
D D A D
How could such a murderer come from our own land?
[Part 9]
G D A D
But when we build walls and borders from fear and hate and guns
D D A D
the hatred turns around and and strikes at everyone.
G D A D
Maybe now we'll understand, maybe now we'll see:
D D A D
superpatriots are seldom friends of you and me.
[Part 10]
G D A D
They're scared and weak and cowards and they think that with their guns.
D D A D
The ones they're most afraid of will turn around and run.
G D A D
But when we stand strong together and let love enjoy its will
D D A D
misfortune can't defeat us, it makes us stronger still.
[Ending)
G D A D
Like on the 19th day of April in 1995
D D A D
a day all Oklahoman will remember all their lives.
[Outro]
