Verse 1
Em C G D/F#
Another head hangs lowly; child is slowly taken.
Em C G D/F#
And the violence caused such silence — who are we mistaken
Em C
But you see it's not me, it's not my family,
G D/F#
In your head, in your head, they are fighting
Em C
With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns
G D/F#
in your head, in your head, they are crying.
Chorus
Em C G D/F#
In your head, in your head, zombie, zombie, zombie
Em C G D/F#
What's in your head, in your head, zombie, zombie, zombie
Em C G D/F# x2
Verse 2
Em C G D/F#
Another mother's breaking heart is taking over.
Em C G D/F#
When the violence causes silence, we must be mistaken.
Em C
It's the same old theme since 1916,
G D/F#
In your head, in your head, they're still fighting
Em C
With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns,
G D/F#
In your head, in your head, they're dying.

In your head, in your head, zombie, zombie, zombie
