Broken Circles Chords

(ver. 1)
Levellers
      Am
Fired forty rounds in the centre of town
   G
He thought to bring the world around
Am
Sleepless nights with God and Christ
    C      G
The New Messiah
Am
Burn the world to change the days
G
Can be done in better ways
       Am
But to make news and front page
       C         G
You've gotta aim higher

                    Am
They didn't build Jerusalem
     G               Am
They didn't find the land
    G            Am
For reasons of security
     G        C        Am 
They couldn't find the plans

    G                   Am
And we're left standing watching from below
G                C      G
No new songs and no new heroes
G                         Am
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
G                       C        G
Waiting for the day the circle's broken

Am G Am C G

Am
Took the mic to save day
    G
The rock star's going to have his say
  Am                         C     G   
interpret this in any way as if it matters
    Am
Cos nothing's black and nothing's white
G
Nothing appears to be quite right
Am
It'll be this way until the day
    C        G
The circle's shattered

                    Am
I heard an old song yesterday
 G             Am
About a better world
             G
You know the story
              Am
Well, They're all the same
    G   C        Am
The boy gets the girl

    G                   Am
And we're left standing watching from below
G                C      G
No new songs and no new heroes
G                         Am
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
G                       C        G
Waiting for the day the circle's broken

Am G Am C G

         Am

The rest is numb
      G
You begin to feel the warmth of the sun
     Am
It's taken away been taking away
C       G
All you once knew
Am
Taking it back takes all you've got
   G
No time to sit and watch it rot
  Am
Believe it's yours and not the lies
   C        G
Or all hell to you

                    Am
They didn't build Jerusalem
     G               Am
They didn't find the land
    G            Am
For reasons of security
     G        C        Am 
They couldn't find the plans

    G                   Am
And we're left standing watching from below
G                C      G
No new songs and no new heroes
G                         Am
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
G                       C        G     Am...
Waiting for the day the circle's broken
