[E] Mother doesn't [G] know where [Bm] love has gone.
[C] [Em] She says it must be [F] youth that keeps us [C] feeling strong.
[G] I [Em] see a little face that's [Bm] turned to ice.
[C] [Em] And when she smiles she shows the lines [D] of sacrifice.
And [C] now I know [G] what they're saying as our sun [Em] begins to fade.
[C] When we made our [Am] love on wasteland [D] and through the [G] barricades.
[Em] Father made my [Bm] history.
[C] [Em]
Fought for what he thought [F] would set us [C] somehow free.
[G] He [Em] taught me what to [Bm] say in school.
[C] [Em] I learned it off by heart but now [D] that's taught me too.
And [C] now I know what they're [D] saying [G] in the music [Em] of the parade.
[C] When we made our [Am] love on wasteland [D] and through [F] the [C] barricades.
[G]
Born on different [Bm] sides of life [C] [Em] we feel the [F] same.
We feel all of this strife.
[G] So come to [Bm] me when I'm asleep.
[D] [C] [Em] We'll cross the [C] lines and dance [D] upon the streets.
And [C] now I know [D] what they're saying [G] as the drums begin [Em] to fade.
[C] When we made our [Am] love on wasteland [D] and through the [G]
barricades.
[F] Oh, [C] turn around [G] me there.
[F] Skylight [C] through my heart [G] again.
[F] Oh, I thought we were the [C] human race.
But we were [G] just another [Em] borderline case.
[C] When the stars reach down and tell us [D] that there's always one escape.
[G] Oh, [D] [Em] I was gone.
In this troubled land [C] desperation [D] keeps us strong.
[G]
The brightest [D] child [Em] is full of soul.
[C] With [G] nothing left to lose [C] there's everything [D] to go.
[C] Now I know [D] what they're saying.
[G] It's a [D] terrible [Em] beauty we've made.
[Bm] So [C] we make our [Am] love on wasteland [D] and through the [G] barricades.
[D] [C] Now I know [D] what they're saying [Em] as our [G] hearts [C] go to their graves.
When we made our [Am] love on [C]
wasteland [D] and through [F] the barricades.
