CHORDS
VERSE:
DOm DOm(add SI5) DOm DOm (add SI5)
On the day the wall came down, they threw the locks on to the ground
FAm/SOL# SOLsus4 SOL
And with glasses high we raised a cry for freedom had arrived
DOm DOm(add SI5)
And on the day the wall came down
DOm DOm(add SI5)
The ship of fools had finally run aground
FAm/SOL# SOLsus4 SOL
Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight
CHORUS
FA SOL/FA FA SOL/FA FA FA/DO DO
I dreamed you had left my side. No warmth not even pride remained--
FA/DO FA SOL/FA FA SOL/FA FA
And even though you needed me, it was clear that I could not
FA/DO DO DO SOL/DO SOL/SI
do a thing for you
VERSE:
Now life devalues day by day
As friends and neighbours turn away
And there's a change that even with regret can not be undone
Now frontiers shift like desert sands,
as nations wash their bloodied hands
Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey
CHORUS
I woke to the sound of drums
The music played, the morning sun streamed in
I turned and I looked at you,
and all but the bitter residue slipped away,
slipped away
