[Verse 1]
DM7      G           F#m       Em
Kids get high in the basement sometimes
DM7           G           F#m       Em
And tell themselves not to watch the screens
       DM7         G                   F#m     Em
It’s the blood that haunts me, I can’t fall asleep
         DM7        G                         F#m      A
Cause it’s ruthless, and don’t tell me you’re ruthless too
 
[Pre-chorus]
              G
When there is blood on the streets of Baltimore
G
Kids are getting ready for a long war
G
Maybe I was born in the wrong skin
          G
But those sheep are rolling in the mud again
 
[Chorus]
DM7     G          DM7        G
Ohhh it haunts me, tell me it haunts you too (Riff)
A                                                G
You cut it up, you cut it up, but it’s still the red white and the blue
A                                                G
You cut it up, you cut it up, but it’s still the red white and the blue
 
[Verse 2]
DM7   G        F#m       Em
Wasted, in the tangles of time
       DM7 G                     F#m           Em
And my baby is she the only one left when it’s dire?
         DM7           G                F#m      Em
She said a change is gonna come, but it’s all on us
           DM7      G                         F#m      A
Cause it’s ruthless, and don’t tell me you’re ruthless too
 
[Pre-chorus]
              G
When there is blood on the streets of Baltimore
G
Kids are getting ready for a long war
G
Maybe I was born in the wrong skin
          G
But those sheep are rolling in the mud again
 
[Chorus]
DM7     G          DM7        G
Ohhh it haunts me, tell me it haunts you too (Riff)
A                                                G
You cut it up, you cut it up, but it’s still the red white and the blue
A                                                G
You cut it up, you cut it up, but it’s still the red white and the blue
 
[Pre-chorus]
            G
And there's blood on the streets of Baltimore
G
Kids are getting ready for a long war
G
Maybe I was born in the wrong skin
          G
But those sheep are rolling in the mud again
 
[Chorus 2]
DM7     G          DM7        G
Ohhh it haunts me, tell me it haunts you too (Riff)
DM7     G                      DM7         G
Ohhh it haunts me cause, their freedom was paid in blood
A                                                G
You cut it up, you cut it up, but it’s still the red white and the blue
A                                                G
You cut it up, you cut it up, but it’s still the red white and the blue

Looks like the tuning is actually Eb standard. If you have the Guitar Tuna app just tune all the strings down -12. Also the D chord correct. I tried the Dmaj7 and it doesn’t sound like what they are playing in the actual song.

Instead of D in the chorus do Dmaj7 (or F#m/D) it really makes the song
