[G] For 30 years [C] they sang the song [D] of promise victory.
[G] But who they fought [C] and who had won [D] didn't matter much to me.
But [G] I see them driving [C] down [Gm] the streets [D] in their fancy shining cars.
[G] Crowds of people to their feet and [D] their faces full of scars.
[G] No pleasantries, no luxuries, and [D] no little children's messes.
[G] While ministers and wise men haul their lives [D] in china-spined silk.
While [G] my back's been broken many times and [D] my spirit lingers on.
The [G] day it comes my way on [D] freedom's ship I'll be going home.
[G] From hell [C] to [D] paradise, [Bm]
[G] how long [C] we wait [D] to rise.
[G] From hell [C] to [D] paradise, [G] how long.

[G] This 90 mile [C] trip [G] has taken [D] 30 years to make.
[G] They tried to keep [C] forever what [D] was never theirs to take.
Well [G] I cursed and scratched [C] the devil's hand [D] as he stood in front of me.
[G] And one last drag [C] from his fake cigar [D] and he finally made me free.
[G] From [C] hell to [D] paradise, [G] how long [C] we [D] wait to rise.
