Patti Smith - Twelve

Gimme Shelter

Oh, a storm is threatening my very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away

War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away

Oh, see the fire is sweepin' our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost his way

War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yeah-yeah, ah

Rape, murder, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, shot away

Oh, the floods are threatening my very life today
C'mon, gimme shelter
'Cause I'm gonna fade away

War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away

I tell you, love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away, kiss away, kiss away

Love, it's just a kiss away
Just a kiss away
Love, oh, love, love, love
Love
Love
