[Verse 1]
C#5
Don't tell us your story
Don't tell us you tried
You swore to uphold it
You swore and you lied
You let down the people
You let down the law
Your sisters, your brothers
You turned on us all
The pride of the city
The guardian in blue
Of duty and honor
You don't have a clue
[Chorus]
D5 E5
Don't tell us you're human
F#5 D5
That truth is quite clear
C#5
We've lost our faith in you
We know who to blame
Protect and serve
Protect and serve
[Verse 2]
C#5 C#5
With every discretion
You're losing out trust
Your image is tarnished
Your badge's in the dust
[Chorus]
D5 E5
The shame of your family
F#5 D5
The shame of the force
C#5
Your selfish indulgence
You felt no remorse
Protect and serve
D5
Protect and serve

Protect and serve
