Verse:
Cm Cm(add b5) Cm Cm (add b5)
On the day the wall came down, they threw the locks on to the ground
Fm/Ab Gsus4 G
And with glasses high we raised a cry for freedom had arrived
Cm Cm(add b5)
And on the day the wall came down
Cm Cm(add b5)
The ship of fools had finally run aground
Fm/Ab Gsus4 G
Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight
Chorus:
F G/F F G/F F F/C C
I dreamed you had left my side. No warmth not even pride remained--
F/C F G/F F G/F F
And even though you needed me, it was clear that I could not
F/C C C G/C G/B
do a thing for you
Verse:
Cm Cm(add b5)
Now life devalues day by day
Cm Cm(add b5)
As friends and neighbours turn away
Fm/Ab Gsus4 G
And there's a change that even with regret can not be undone
Cm Cm(add b5)
Now frontiers shift like desert sands,
Cm Cm(add b5)
while nations wash their bloodied hands
Fm/Ab Gsus4 G
Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey
Chorus:
F G/F F
I woke to the sound of drums
G/F F F/C C
The music played, the morning sun streamed in
F/C F G/F F
I turned and I looked at you,
G/F F F/C C
and all but the bitter residue slipped away,
C G/C G/B
slipped away
