C
If pain was a color to paint on you
     E7
Your heart would be the color blue.
     Am
Be a gradient from there till your body met your hair
D
Which would remain a silver hue
C
You are the one they call Jesus Christ.
    E7
Who didn't know no rock and roll.
       Am
Just a mission and a gun to paint rainbows in Vietnam
      D
And a heart that always told you

          F             C
There's a madness in us all.
          F             C
There's a madness in us all.



   C
So who broke the rules?
Em
Who broke the rules?
Am
Who broke the rules?
          F                           C
They said every one of you will never try to lend a hand
         Em                         Am
When the policemen don't understand.
C             F
Boys, all you boys
                Am         G
Think you're so American.
C              F
Girls, all you girls
                Am         G
Yeah you're so American.




C
He may not be born of this land
    E7
But he was born of this world.
       Am
He was born of all the mothers and the colors of our brothers
        D
And the love that was taught to

C
you by the one they call Jesus Christ.
   E7
He may not know no rock and roll.
      Am
There may not be a heaven, or a place of which to send you,
        D
But you know in the end




          F            C
There's a madness in us all.
          F             C
There's a madness in us all. # (x2)

        F                  C
There's two eyes for every one of us
             Em                                Am G
But somebody got there first and took them all.

C       F
Man, oh man
