"Too Many Martyrs" by Phil Ochs
In the state of Mississippi many years ago
[Em] [G] [D]
A boy of 14 years got a taste of southern law
[Am] [Em]
He saw his friend a hanging and his color was his crime
[Em] [G] [D]
And the blood upon his jacket left a brand upon his mind
[Am] [Em]
CHORUS: Too many martyrs and too many dead
[Am] [D] [G]
Too many lies too many empty words were said
Am D G (Em optional)
Too many times for too many angry men
[Am] [D] [G]
Oh let it never be again
[Am] [D] [Em]
