[C]
[F]
[Bb] [C]
[F]
[Bb] Look at [C] them working in the [F] hot sun The
[Bb] pillory [C] it sinks and the [F] fallen ones
[Bb] Working [G] and waiting for the night [F] to come
[Dm] And waiting [Bb] for a, and waiting [C] for a, and waiting [Bb] for a [F] miracle
[Bb] Somewhere [C] out there is a [F] place that's cool
[Bb] Where [C] peace and balance are the [F] rule
[Bb] Working [G] toward a future like some kind of [F] mystic Jew
[Dm] And waiting [Bb] for a, and waiting [C] for a, and [D] waiting for a [F] miracle
[Dm] You rub your palm [C] on the glimy pain
Hope that you can [Gm] see
[G] When you're [Gm] waiting
[Dm] You stand up proud
You [C] pretend you're strong in the hope that you can [G] be
When you're waiting
[Dm] Like the ones who've cried, [C] like the ones who've died
Trying to [Gm] set the angel of us free
While they're waiting [Bb] for a, while they're waiting [C] for a, while they're waiting [F] for a miracle
[Bb] [C]
[F] [Dm]
[Bb] [C]
[F]
[Bb] Struggle [C] for a dollar, scuffle for [F] a dime
[Bb] Step out [C] from the past and try [F] to hold the line
So
[Bb] how [G] come history takes such a long, [F] long time
[D] When you're waiting [Bb] for a, when you're waiting [C] for a, when you're [D] waiting for a miracle
[F]
[Dm] You rub your palm [C] on the glimy pain
In the hope that you can [Gm] see
When you're waiting
[G]
[Dm] You stand up proud
[C] You pretend you're strong in the hope that you [G] can be
When you're [Gm] waiting
Like
[Dm] the ones who've cried, [C] like the ones who've died
Trying to [Gm] set the angel of us free
While they're waiting [Bb] for a, while they're waiting [C] for a, while they're waiting [Dm] for a miracle
[Dm] While they're waiting [Bb] for a, while they're waiting [C] for a, while they're waiting [Bb] for a [F] miracle
[Dm] While they're waiting [Bb] for a, while they're waiting [C] for a, while they're waiting [Gm] for a [F] miracle
