[Intro]
[Bb] [F]
[Verse]
[Bb]Chalk in the riverbed
Was [F]deposited by the ocean as it boiled [Bb]off
[Bb]Encased in calcium carbonate
We could [F]drown or we could solder
[Bb]I climbed the ranks of militiamen
And the [F]Sadrites, and my parents felt a cautious [Bb]pride
[Bb]And disregarded Shari'a Law
And put the [F]Tigris in a trench now
[Pre-Chorus]
[Bbsus2]Give us rain, give us rain, give us rain, give us [Dm7]rain,
Give us rain, give us [C]rain, send us water
[Bbsus2]Send us trucks, send us trucks, send us trucks, send us [Dm7]trucks,
Send us trucks, send us [C]tanks, send us IEDs
[Bbsus2]Send us planes, send us planes, send us planes, send us [Dm7]planes,
Send us planes, send us [C]planes, is the sky clear enough?
[Bbsus2]Send us dust storms, woah-[Dm7][C]
[Chorus]
[Bb]Allahu Akbar[F]
[Verse]
[Bb]The sand has lowered the vitamin
Satu[F]ration point, put a straw under the bridge and [Bb]suck
[Bb]We made a pact with the Arakeen
And we [F]built ourselves a filter
[Bb]The city hydro's undrinkable
Shattered [F]cinderblocks are their favorite things to talk a[Bb]bout
[Bb]We saw your face in the Guardian
And it [F]raised the circulation
[Pre-Chorus]
[Bbsus2]Send us rain, please transmit
Please receive our dumb [Dm7]prayers,
Telepath, send a [C]flood, send us an avalanche
[Bbsus2]Send us cold, send us ice, send us meteo[Dm7]rites
Send us snow, send us [C]hail, send us high speed rail
[Bbsus2]We can pay, we should pay, we will pay, we [Dm7]insist
No defaults but we [C]must get down to Chechnya
[Bbsus2]We defend, we fight back, we plant bombs under [Dm7]tracks
We skip church, all the [C]monotheists
[Chorus]
[Bb]Sing: "Allahu Akbar!"[F]
[Bb]And the Inuit sang
And the [Dm]Zionists sang:
"A[C]llahu Akbar!"[Bb]
[Bb]And the economists sang
And the ast[Bb]ronomers sang
And the [Dm]anarchists sang:
"A[C]llahu Akbar!"[Bb]
[Bb]God is greatest!
[Bb]God is greatest!
[Dm]God is greatest!
"A[C]llahu Akbar!" [Bb]
