Stop the looting, stop the shooting

Pick pocking on the corner
F
See as the rich is getting richer
G E/G#
The poor is getting poorer

Am
Se mira Maria on the corner
G
Thinking of ways to make it better
F
In my mailbox there’s an eviction letter
G E/G#
Somebody just said see you later

Am
Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola

I said a la favella los colores

The streets are getting hotter
F
There is no water to put out the fire

Mi canto la esperanza

E/G# Am
Se mira Maria on the corner

Thinking of ways to make it better

Then I looked up in the sky

Hoping of days of paradise

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola

Maria you know you’re my lover

When the wind blows I can feel you

Through the weather and even when we’re apart
