[F] [C]
Martin was bright as he stood [F] up and sang in the [C] choir
His heart all in pieces was [Am] breaking, his head was on [C] fire
They [F] took him from that place and they buried him deep in the ground
[C]
Out with the light [F] and quiet the [C] sound
And it's a slow [F] revolution that quietly [C] turns
[F] As the true word [C] burns
And
[F] all of the people [C] marching together out across the floor
And all that was [G] after is [F] now as it was before

[C]
Sylvia sat staring out [F] into the depths of her room
[C] A moment of light from her brain [Am] cut through the dark, pierced the [C] gloom
[F] Her children's voices were music, came faint through the [C] wall
From such a great height she looked [F] down, there was only the [C] fall
And it's a slow [F] revolution that quietly [C] turns
[F] As the true word [C] burns
And [F] all of the people marching, stomping out across the [C] floor
And all that was after is [F] now as it was [C] before
So
[F]
[C]
[F]
[C]
look at the shadows bent forward, trying to break through the night
Huddled against the darkness, [F] so close to the [C] light
[F] And my voice is breaking out here in this wilderness
[C] For
[G]
[F]
[C]
I see a time, it is [F] coming, I see a time of [C] change
The sun is burning the [F] deserts, but water's filling the [C] plains
[F] Noah is crazily chipping away at his ark
[C]
While all of us [G] ready [F] ourselves to go into [C] the dark
It's a slow
[F] revolution that quietly [C] turns
As [F] the true [C] word burns
Yeah, [F] the true word [C] burns
And [F] all of the people marching, dancing out across the [C] floor
And all of this matter [F] soon won't matter much [C] anymore
