[Verse 1]
Em
Ahhh
Em                 Am                   G C G C G
Peace like a river ran through the city
C                         G              C      C/B
Long past the midnight curfew we sat starry-eyed
Am      Am/G   Am/F#
  Oh  oh    oh
D/F#    Em        Em*
We were Satisfied
 
[Verse 2]
Em
Oh  when I remember
Em               Am                      G C G C G
Misinformation followed us like a plague
C                    G
Nobody knew from time to time
            C            C/B
If the plans were changed
Am      Am/G   Am/F#
  Oh  oh    oh
D/F#          G            G Am G
 If the plans were changed
 
[Bridge]
Am                           Am G Am
  You can beat us with wires
G                             G Am G
  You can beat us with chains
D
  You can run out your rules, but you know you can't
Em                        Em Am G
Outrun the history train
Am                           G    D     Em
  I seen a glorious day, aye--ee--ee--ee--e-

Em
Ahhh
Em                    Am                    G        C G C G
Four in the morning I woke up from out of my  dreams
C                     G
Nowhere to go but back to sleep
        C           C/B
But I'm   reconciled
Am      Am/G   Am/F#
  Oh  oh    oh
D/F#          Em
 I'm gonna be up for awhile
Am      Am/G   Am/F#

 I'm gonna be up for awhile
Am      Am/G   Am/F#
  Oh  oh    oh
D/F#          Em
 I'm gonna be up for awhile
