Eb Eb Bbm Bbm
So much has gone and little is new

And as the sparrow sings
F# F#
Dawn chorus for
Bbm Bbm
Someone else to hear
Bbm Bbm A A
The thinker sits alone
F# F# Bbm Bbm
Growing older

And so bitter

F F Bbm Bbm
~~I gave Them life, I gave Them all
C C Fm Fm
They drained my very soul...dry
F F Bbm Bbm
I crushed my heart to ease Their pains
C C Fm Fm Ab Ab
No thought for me remains there
Bbm Bbm Db Db
Nothing can they spare
C C
What of me?

Am Am F F
Who praised Their efforts to be free?
G G C C
Words of strength and care and sympathy
Am Am F F
I open doors that would have blocked their way
GC
I braved Their cause to guide for little pay
Am Am F F
I ravaged at my finanace just for Those
G G C C
Those whose claims were steeped in peace, tranquility
Am Am F F
Those who said a new world, new ways ever free
G G C C
Those whose promises stretched in hope and grace for me.~~

And the road is coming to its end

Now the damned have not time to make amends

No purse of token fortunes stands in Our way
G G C C
The silent guns of love will blast the sky

Am AmF F
We broke the ruptured structure build of age
GC
Our weapons were tongues of crying rage
Am AmF F
Where money stood we planted seeds of rebirth
G G C C
And stabbed the backs of fathers, sons of dirt

Am Am
Infiltrated business cesspools

Hating through Our sleeves

-Screw Up Your Brother or He~ll Get You In the End-

And We Can Force You to Believe.~~

Am Am
And I close my eyes and tighten up my brain
F F
For I once read a book in which the lovers were slain
G G
For they Knew not the words of the Free States~ refrain,

It said:

C C
~~I Believe in the Power of Good
Am Am
I Believe in the State of Love
F F
I Will Fight For the Right to be Right
G G
C C
I Will Kill for the Good of the Fight for the Right to be Right.~~

Am Am F F
And I open my eyes to look around
G G
And I see a child laid slain on the ground
C C Am Am
As a love machine lumbers through desolation rows
F F G G
Ploughing down man, woman, listening to its command
C C
But not hearing anymore-
Am Am F F
Not hearing anymore
G G
Just the shrieks from the old rich

C C
And I Want to Believe
G G
In the madness that calls ~Now~
C C
And I Want to Believe
G G
That a light is shining through somehow

Bb Bb
And I Want to Believe
F F
And You Want to Believe
C C
And We Want to Believe
G G
And We Want to Live
