Em                     C            D 
     Fifteen man taken captive in a hostile foreign land 
Em                         C         D 
     Scorchin' sun beaming down onto miles and miles of sand 
Em                           C          D 
     A mideast country being ruled by a man who thinks it's fun 
Em                           C          D
     To hold our people in return for a sjah that's on the run 

Am                C  B 
     I think it's funny 
Am                C  B 
     Freedom takes money

Em               C        D 
It's a heartache and it's hard luck 
Em                     C        D 
Well that's tough shit man it's no fun 
Em                          C                             D 
Storm the Iranian embassy before they start shootin' down you and me 

( Em  C  D ) (2x) 

Em                          C           D 
     Scourge of suits in control Of the diplomaticness 
Em                            C          D 
     While the nations of the world look on and they care less 
Em                           C          D 
     The Soviet Union won't agree to an economic plan 
Em                                       C             D 
     And then they laugh and march their troops into Afghanistan

Em                                   C              D 
     A nation worries and reads the papers hoping that no-one has died 
Em                            C               D 
     Hearin' rumours that the hostages will soon be tried as spies 
Em                            C          D 
     Demonstrations on the street saying that the end is near 
Em                                    C               D 
     The man from New York Times on vacation Wants to know what happened here 

Am             C    B 
     Agressive acts now 
Am               C    B 
     We want the best now 
Am                C  B 
     Fifteen moms crying 
Am             C B 
     Is my son dying ? 

(Lead 1)

Well that's tough shit man it's no fun 
Em                          C                             D 
Storm the Iranian embassy before they start shootin' down you and me
