[Ebm] [Ab]
[Db] The time is [Gb] near, [Db]
so near, [Gb] Stirring the blood in [Fm]
their veins,
And yet, [Bbm] beware,
[Fm] Don't let [Bbm] the wine go to your [F] brains.
We [Dm] need a sign To rally the [Bb] peak,
To call them to [Gm] us, To bring them [F] in line.
[C] Marius, wake up!
[F] What's wrong today?
You look as if you've seen a ghost.
[C] Some whinin' say, What's [Ab] going on?
[Am] A ghost, you say?
A ghost, maybe?
She [C] was just like a ghost [F] to me, [C] One minute there, [G] then she [Am] was gone.
[D] [Gm] I am a gog, [Bb] I am a ghast, Is Marius in [Eb] love at last?
[Bb] I've never heard him ooh [F] and ah.
[Gb] [Gm] You talk of battles to be won, And [Bb] here he comes, like Don [Eb] Juan.
It is [Bb] better than [F] an [Bb] opera.
[G]
[Em] It is time for us all to decide [G] who we are.
[C] Do we fight for the right [G] to a night at the opera now?
[Em] Have you asked of yourself what's [G] the price you might pay?
[C] Is this simply a game for a rich [Bm] young boy to play?
[Am] The colours of the world [A] are changing [D] day by day.
[G] Red, the blood of [Em] angry men, The dark of ages [G]
past.
Red, a world about to [Em] dawn.
[C] Black, the night that ends [G] at last.
[Em] Had you seen her [G] today, you might know how it feels.
[Em] To be struck to the bone in a moment [G] of breathless delight.
[Em] Had you been there today, [G] you might also have known
[Em] How the world may be changed in just [Bm] one burst of light.
And [Am] what was right seems wrong, And [Em] what was wrong [D] seems right.
[G]
Red, I feel my [Em] soul on fire.
[C] Black, my world if [G] she's not there.
Red, the colour of [Em] [C] desire.
Black, the colour of [G] despair.
[C] Marius, you're no longer a child.
I do not doubt [F] you mean it well.
[C] But now there is a higher [G] call.
[Ab] [Am] Who cares about your lonely soul?
[D] [C] We strive toward a larger [F] goal.
[C] Our little lives [G] don't count [C] at all.
[G] Red, the blood of [Em] angry men.
[C] Black, the dark of [G] ages past.
Red, a world about to [Em] dawn.
[C]
Black, the night that ends at [G] last.
Listen everybody!

[B]
[Db] Lamarck, [Gb] his death is the hour [Fm] of fate.
The [Bbm] people's man.

await.
[Bbm] His funeral day, they will honour his name.
With a light of rebellion ablaze [Gb] in their eyes.
[Cm] Let candles of grief we will [Ab] kindle our flame.
[Cm] To Lamarck shall our [Ab] barricade rise.
The time is [F] here.
Let us welcome it gladly with courage [B] and cheer.
Let us take to the streets with no doubt in [F] our hearts.
For the [D] jubilant sounds, they will come [Bb] one and all.
[Gm]
They will come when [F] we call.
[Db] The time is [Gb] near, [Db]
so near, [Gb] Stirring the blood in [Fm]
their veins,
And yet, [Bbm] beware,
