G# E B F# x4
 
[Verse]
G#                               E
She wakes up in the morning; the sun is shining in her face
B                                         F#
She turns her head around; she shares the blanket on which the love embraced
     G#                               E
She looks out of the window; it's a lovely day outside
    B                                      F#
She tells herself that things are fine, he pulls the sheets to cover his eyes
     G#                            E
The essence of the fresh air, that garden held the love affair
B                                     F#
Thinking back their minds are torn in muddle and confusion
G#                             E
So far away another sits, who tries to make the best of it
   B                                     F#
He don't know quite what's hit him, it's another love illusion
 
[Chorus]
      F#                              D
He gazes in his empty room eyes fixed upon her picture
E                                        C#
The loneliness, dejectedness, God how the f**k he's missed her
     F#                                  D
His eyes turn turn to the window, the military roar by
    E                              C#
He wonders how much hatred could evolve out of the sky
     F#                                     D
What God had done for peace on earth, what man destroyed from day of birth
      E                                      C#
They are concerned with feelings; they're just ashamed to cry
    F#                                       D
And one mans plan to push the button makes other sacrifice
     E                             C#
The serenade is dead and now the only question's why?
 
[Verse]
    G#                         E
Why when we are young, we're told it's right to love
B                               F#
Told it's human nature and that comes from God above
G#                                  E
As time moves on we realise that we all look from the pit
         B                       F#
While a plan hangs above us, to keep us in the sh*t
              G#                        E
Because the minute we are born, we're told what's right and wrong
B                                    F#
Raised with certain morals, never mentioned in their songs
   G#                                E
As we grow up, we find out that the paths been neatly set
      B                              F#
In a world of such destruction, we only can regret
 
[Chorus]
    F#                                 D
Regret that is the word of it, as we look for our way out of it
     E                        C#
Why can't they understand we don't want any part of it?
    F#                               D
The pain they create everyday, that just ain't gonna go away
      E                            C#
We've got to stick together, but still you're asking why?
 
F# D E C# x4
 
[Bridge]
     G#                           E
The system stands strong, as our movement starts to crumble
     B                          F#
The pressure we once held, has just turned into a rumble
        G#                                  E
They've got us where they want us, and you all just accept that
      B                            F#
Well don't you think its time; we started to hit back
      G#                         E
They are the enemy; they want a rope around your neck
        B                           F
And if they will go that far, then what the f**k is next?
 
[Verse]
    G#                         E
Forget the revolution, we've heard it all before
B                            F#
Heard all of the promises of nineteen-eighty-four
         G#                           E
Its an impossible task, "oh yes", it stands before us all
      B                                  F#       G#         E
Well maybe you'll believe it when your back's against the wall
