Handicap And Equality Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Bm

A

Bm

A

And add some stuff when on the A's (with another guitar or just add it with

some hands work), so it would be like this:

The song goes like this:

 ABmll men are born equal at the moAment they arrive...

 CBmheck the limbs and senses we rAequire to survive.

  G But some come deaf and dumb and blinded,

  F♯m some have damage to their brains:

  G parents constantly reminded

 tF♯mhat they'll never play the normal Emchildren's games.

They may not be normal,

 bBmut they're people just the same.

If Christ had been born defective to fulfil the Father's plan

would he be as easily accepted as God made man

or does the human value alter

in the crippled human frame?

Though the tongue and fingers falter

must we shut them out and shut them up,

and shut the case and whisper 'such a shame...'

That's how we shut them away.

Most of us are lucky, free from accidents at birth

but their victims share our right to the inheritance of earth.

For all their grunts, their stumps,

their tumours, their eternal wheelchairs,

we're the freaks, we're the inhumans,

if we close our eyes and turn aside, pretend

that if we do they'll not be there....

They've got to face it, so we've got to face it.

Still they've got to live with it

in a worlds we supposedly share.

The end is a bit obscure to me. I am not very sure about all the chords, this

is only general and there may be some maj7 or sus4 everywhere, I never had time

to check it.

Have fun (with such a song?)
