[G]
[C]
[F] Was it better then, with our backs [G] against [C] the wall?
[G] Were we better men than we'd ever been [C] before?
[F] Say if she [G] came again [F] today, would you still answer [C] to the call?
[G] Tell the truth, my friend, don't it matter [C] anymore?
[F] We were simple men, by her side when she [C] was born.
Talking about the dream.
[G] It was simple then, like the freedom when [C] you fall.
[F] And we were smaller than you see, but soon we gathered like [C] a storm.
[G] They don't understand what that thunder meant [C] at all.

[F] Was he crucified?
Was he done in [C] by the law?
[G] Are you satisfied that he'll never write [C] again?
[F] Some people say he got away, they say he never [C] died at all.
[G] If that story's true, does it bother you, [C] my friend?
[F] Was it bitter then, with our backs [C] against the wall?
Say two thousand years ago,
[G] were we better men than we'd [D] ever [C] been before?
Or two hundred years ago.
[F] Say if she came again today, would you still answer [C] to the call?
Or tomorrow.
[G] Tell the [C] truth, my [G] friend, don't it matter [C] anymore?
