Lyrics of
Ohio

Ohio was written by Neil Young in response to the Kent State University shootings on May 4, 1970, when National Guardsmen fired on unarmed students during a protest against the expansion of the Vietnam War into Cambodia, killing four students.

Gm7- 353333

Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming we're finally on our own
this summer I hear the drumming four dead in Ohio

Gotta get down to it soldiers are gunning us down
should of been done long ago
what if you knew her and found her dead on the ground
how can you run when you know?

La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la

Gotta get down to it soldiers are gunning us down
should of been done long ago
what if you knew her and found her dead on the ground
how can you run when you know?

Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming we're finally on our own
this summer I hear the drumming four dead in Ohio

four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
four dead in Ohio
