G        C    G      Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We’re never gonna go away.

G        D             You can’t make us leave                                            or make us go your way.

G        C    G      We were born with the same drive          so we’ll always say,

G        D    G      “Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We are here to stay.”

 

D                C        Simon Smith met his man,                    his true love,    at an airport in south Spain. 

D                Am      They both were runnin’ late                          and missed their plane that day. 

D                C        They talked a while                                 and realized                             they’re from the same quaint place:

D                Am      A county      in a state                             that hates gays.

C        D                  But they’re going back                             to say,

 

G        C    G      Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We’re never gonna go away.

G        D             You can’t make us leave                                            or make us go your way.

G        C    G      We were born with the same drive          so we’ll always say,

G        D    G      “’Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We are here to stay.’”

 

D                C        It’s easier if you’re                             a woman                     to find a woman to love.

D                Am      Since women have always loved      naturally.

D                C        But women fear men more                                  than men fear other men. 

D                Am      Even women          have never                   been free. 

C        D                  So they stand up and say,

 

G        C    G      Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We’re never gonna go away.

G        D             You can’t make us leave                                            or make us go your way.

G        C    G      We were born with the same drive          so we’ll always say,

G        D    G      “’Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We are here to stay.’”

 

Jam:

D                C   

D                Am  

 

D                C        Can you imagine    a future                      when the chickens, fish, pigs, cows

D                Am      and sheep     will rebel                             against humans?

D                C        Or an alien   invasion                             decides men will feed them?

D                Am      Or a lowly    pathogen does us in?

C        D                  But someone will always say,

 

G        C    G      Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We’re never gonna go away.

G        D             You can’t make us leave                                            or make us go your way.

G        C    G      We were born with the same drive          so we’ll always say,

G        D    G      “’Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We are here to stay.

G        D    G      “’Hell no, we won’t go!                                           No matter what you do or say.

G        D    G      “’Hell no, we won’t go!                                           We’re never gonna go away.’”
