Les Miserables
ABC Cafe (Red and Black)
 
[Verse]     Dm                                     F
(Enjolras) It is time for us all to decide who we are
           Bb                                           F
           Do we fight for the right to a night at the opera now?
           Dm                                                      F
           Have you asked of yourselves what's the price you might pay?
           Bb                                  Am
           Is it simply a game for rich young boys to play?
               Gm                       G7             C
           The colors of the world are changing day by day
 
[Chorus]   F                       Dm
(Enjolras) Red, the blood of angry men
           Bb                      F
           Black, the dark of ages past
           F                     Dm
           Red, a world about to dawn
           Bb                             F
           Black, the night that ends at last
 
[Verse]  Dm                                             F
(Marius) Had you been there today you might know how it feels
         Bb                                      F
         To be struck to the bone in a moment of breathless delight
         Dm                                 F
         Had you been there today you might also have known
         Bb                                       Am
         How the world may be changed in just one burst of light
             Gm                              G7                    C
         And what was right seems wrong and what was wrong seems right
 
[Chorus]   F                     Dm
(Grantaire)Red,         
(Marius)       I feel my soul on fire
           Bb                           F
           Black,
                  My world if she's not there
           F                     Dm
(All)      Red,
               It's the color of desire
           Bb                      F
           Black, 
                 It's the color of despair
 
[Verse]    Gm
(Enjolras) Marius, you're no longer a child
           Bb                          Eb
           I do not doubt you mean it well
           Bb                        F
           But now there is a higher call
           Gm
           Who cares about your lonely soul?
           Bb                         Eb
           We strive towards a larger goal
               Bb                 F7        Bb
           Our little lives don't count at all
 
[Chorus]  F                      Dm
(All)  Red, the blood of angry men
       Bb                       F
       Black, the dark of ages past
       F                     Dm
       Red, a world about to dawn
       Bb                             F
       Black, the night that ends at last

I think this version is the one of the original london cast. If you want to play the Les Miserables (2012) movie version just put the capo in the first fret.
