IF I HAD A ROCKET LAUNCHER by Bruce Cockburn

E D C D E
Here comes the helicopter,
E D C D E
Second time today
E D C D E
Everybody scatters
E D C D E
And hopes it goes away
E D C D E
How many kids they've murdered
E D C B A
Only God can say
A D
If I had a rocket launcher
A D
If I had a rocket launcher
A D
If I had a rocket launcher
E D C D E D C E
I'd make somebody pay
I don't believe in guarded borders and I don't believe in hate
I don't believe in generals or their stinking torture states
And when I talk with the survivors of things too sickening to relate
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I would retaliate
On the Rio Lacuntun one hundred thousand wait
To fall down from starvation or some less humane fate
Cry for Guatemala with a corpse in every gate
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I would not hesitate
INSTRUMENTAL
I want to raise every voice, at least I've got to try
Every time I think about it water rises to my eyes
Situation desperate echoes of the victim's cry
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
Some son-of-a-bitch would die

I get tired of people posting tab and chords that are so obviously wrong that they must be "tune deaf" or beginning guitarists who are so excited to figure something out resembling the actual tune and they want to have their name on a guitar site.
Either buy a book of the artists' original or really figure it out.
There are a number of chords here that should be minors.
The E, A, and B chords should all be
minor, but other than that, it sounds
good
