D D/CI bless you madly
Bm Bb DSadly as I tie my shoe
D/CI love you badly
Bm Bb D D/CJust in time, at times, I guess
Bm Bb D D/CBecause of you I need to rest
Bm Bb DBecause it~s you that sets the test
 
Eb BbmSo much has gone and little is new
Bbm AAnd as the sparrow sings
F#
Dawn chorus for
BbmSomeone else to hear
Bbm AThe thinker sits alone
F# BbmGrowing older
 
And so bitter
 
F Bbm~~I gave Them life, I gave Them all
C FmThey drained my very soul...dry
F BbmI crushed my heart to ease Their pains
C Fm AbNo thought for me remains there
Bbm DbNothing can they spare
CWhat of me?
 
Am FWho praised Their efforts to be free?
G CWords of strength and care and sympathy
Am FI open doors that would have blocked their way
G CI braved Their cause to guide for little pay
Am FI ravaged at my finanace just for Those
G CThose whose claims were steeped in peace, tranquility
Am FThose who said a new world, new ways ever free
G CThose whose promises stretched in hope and grace for me.~~

Eb BbmSo much has gone and little is new
Bbm AAnd as the sunrise stream
F# BbmFlickers on me
Bbm AMy friends talk of glory, untold dream
F# BbmWhere all is God and God is just a word
 
F Bbm~~We had a friend, a talking man
C FmWho spoke of many powers that he had
F BbmNot of the best of men but Ours
C Fm AbWe used him, We let him use his powers
Bbm DbWe let him fill our needs
CNow we are strong.
 
Am FAnd the road is coming to its end
G CNow the damned have not time to make amends
Am FNo purse of token fortunes stands in Our way
G CThe silent guns of love will blast the sky
 
Am FWe broke the ruptured structure build of age
G COur weapons were tongues of crying rage
Am FWhere money stood we planted seeds of rebirth
G CAnd stabbed the backs of fathers, sons of dirt
 
AmInfiltrated business cesspools
FHating through Our sleeves
GYea, and We slit the Catholic throat
CStoned the poor on slogans as:
 
 
-Wish You Could Hear-
Am-Love Is All We Need-
 
-Kick Out The Jams-
 
-Kick Out Your Mother-
F-Cut Up Your Friend-
G-Screw Up Your Brother or He~ll Get You In the End-
 
C AmAnd We Know the Flag of Love is from Above
FAnd We Can Force You to Be Free
G CAnd We Can Force You to Believe.~~
 
AmAnd I close my eyes and tighten up my brain
FFor I once read a book in which the lovers were slain
GFor they Knew not the words of the Free States~ refrain,
 
It said:
 
C~~I Believe in the Power of Good
AmI Believe in the State of Love
FI Will Fight For the Right to be Right
G
CI Will Kill for the Good of the Fight for the Right to be Right.~~
 
Am FAnd I open my eyes to look around
GAnd I see a child laid slain on the ground
C AmAs a love machine lumbers through desolation rows
F GPloughing down man, woman, listening to its command
CBut not hearing anymore-
Am FNot hearing anymore
GJust the shrieks from the old rich
 
CAnd I Want to Believe
GIn the madness that calls ~Now~
CAnd I Want to Believe
GThat a light is shining through somehow
 
BbAnd I Want to Believe
FAnd You Want to Believe
CAnd We Want to Believe
GAnd We Want to Live
AbOh, We Want to Live
BbWe Want to Live
CWe Want to Live
