GUEST,EmmettDoyle Putin songs (73* d) RE: Putin songs 05 Sep 23


Here's one, called January 19, for victims of Putin's state- Anastasia Baburova and Stanislav Markelov

Em G B7 Em G Em
Oh the winter snow, it tumbles and it blows, all around the Kremlin walls
Em G B7 Em G B7
And covers the red stones, white as any bone, through the winter days it falls
Am Em
Silence like a glass is broken
Am B7
Breath is stolen by the sound
Em G B7 Em
White turns to red, two friends are lying dead
Am B7 Em
In Moscow streets below the Kremlin walls

The murdered two, were of those bravest few, like too many martyrs come before
Cut down in their youth for covering the truth, the realities of war
The horrors of the occupation
Breed monsters around an empire’s heart
Our friends found the way to show them to the light of day,
And the monsters came for settling the score

Bridge- Am Em
Behind the trigger stood the fascists
Am G
Behind the fascists stood the state
Am G B7 Em
The top of the machine keep their fingers clean
Am B7
Their dogs are primed with money or with hate

The time comes fast, and soon it will be passed, for all of us to answer to the call
To work heart and hand, and together make a stand, and to see the tyrants fall
We’ll fight for the ones who’ll follow after
And not forget those lost along the way
The blood of Markelov, the blood of Baburova
Stains red the stones around the Kremlin walls
