Gimme Shelter (Live) Lyrics

Yes, a storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
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, yeah

Yes, see the fire is sweepin'
Our very streets today
Earth like a burnin' carpet
Mad bull lost your 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)

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, yeah

Yeah, see the floods is threatening
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or 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
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

Yeah
Love, sister, it's just a kiss away
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, kiss away, kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Kiss away, kiss away, kiss away, kiss away

Gimme shelter
Gimme shelter
Gimme shelter
Gimme shelter
Gimme shelter, yeah alright
Gimme shelter, yeah alright
