The Rolling Stones
Gimme Shelter
[Intro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Ooh, a storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Ooh yeah, I'm gonna fade away

[Chorus 1]
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

[Verse 2]
Yeah the fire is sweeping
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull has lost his way

[Chorus 1]
War, children
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
War, children, yeah
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
[Guitar Solo 1]

[Bridge: Aspen Miller]
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

[Verse 3]
Yeah, the floods is threatening
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm going to fade away

[Chorus 1]
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

It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Shot away, shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Shot away, shot away
[Outro]
Baby, yeah
Gimme shelter
Gimme shelter, yeah

[Guitar Solo 2]

[Chorus 2]
I'll tell ya love, sister
It's just a kiss away, it's just a-
Said 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, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away, kiss away, kiss away
Gimme shelter love
Gimme shelter yeah
Ooh yeah, oh yeah
