D            D/C
I bless you madly
Bm    Bb           D
Sadly as I tie my shoe
            D/C
I love you badly
Bm       Bb                D   D/C
Just in time, at times, I guess
  Bm        Bb            D   D/C
Because of you I need to rest
 Bm          Bb                 D
Because it's you that sets the test

Eb                    Bbm
So much has gone and little is new
Bbm           A
And as the sparrow sings
       F#
Dawn chorus for
 Bbm             
Someone else to hear
Bbm          A
The thinker sits alone
  F#     Bbm
Growing older
Bbm
And so bitter

F                               Bbm
I gave Them life, I gave Them all
     C                Fm
They drained my very soul...dry
F                                 Bbm
I crushed my heart to ease Their pains
      C              Fm         Ab
No thought for me remains there
Bbm              Db
Nothing can they spare
         C
What of me?

Am                                         F
Who praised Their efforts to be free? 
 G                                          C
Words of strength and care and sympathy
Am                                                        F
I open doors that would have blocked their way
   G                                                    C
I braved Their cause to guide for little pay
Am                                           F
I ravaged at my finance just for Those
                 G                                               C
Those whose claims were steeped in peace, tranquility
Am                                                        F
Those who said a new world, new ways ever free
                                    G                                      C
Those whose promises stretched in hope and grace for me.''

Because it's you that sets the test

Eb                          Bbm
So much has gone and little is new
Bbm              A
And as the sunrise stream
 F#             Bbm
Flickers on me
                   Bbm     A
My friends talk of glory, untold dream
        F#                 Bbm
Where all is God and God is just a word

F                                    Bbm
We had a friend, a talking man
        C                 Fm
Who spoke of many powers that he had
 F                                  Bbm
Not of the best of men but Ours
    C                             Fm              Ab
We used him, We let him use his powers
   Bbm                  Db 
We let him fill our needs       
                 C
Now we are strong.

Am                                       F
And the road is coming to its end
 G                                                 C
Now the damned have not time to make amends
Am                                                      F
No purse of token fortunes stands in Our way
     G                                      C
The silent guns of love will blast the sky
Am                                                      F
We broke the ruptured structure build of age
        G                                       C
Our weapons were tongues of crying rage
         Am                                             F
Where money stood we planted seeds of rebirth
        G                                                C
And stabbed the backs of fathers, sons of dirt

  Am                    
Infiltrated business cesspools
                    F
Hating through Our sleeves
                 G                              
Yea, and We slit the Catholic throat
                           C
Stoned the poor on slogans as:
                         C
        -Wish You Could Hear-
                             Am
        -Love Is All We Need-
                             Am
        -Kick Out The Jams-
                             Am
        -Kick Out Your Mother-
          F
        -Cut Up Your Friend-
                                                   G
        -Screw Up Your Brother or He'll Get You In the End-

          C                                             Am
And We Know the Flag of Love is from Above
                F
And We Can Force You to Be Free
                G                          C
And We Can Force You to Believe.''
 
                                  Am
And I close my eyes and tighten up my brain
                                                  F
For I once read a book in which the lovers were slain
                                                        G
For they Knew not the words of the Free States' refrain,
        G
It said:

 C
I Believe in the Power of Good
    Am
I Believe in the State of Love
           F
I Will Fight For the Right to be Right
          G                                                     C
I Will Kill for the Good of the Fight for the Right to be Right.'

                   Am                      F
And I open my eyes to look around
                                                 G
And I see a child laid slain on the ground
C                         Am
As a love machine lumbers through desolation rows
F                          G
Ploughing down man, woman, listening to its command
           C
But not hearing anymore
        Am               F
Not hearing anymore
                G
Just the shrieks from the old rich

                    C
And I Want to Believe
                           G
In the madness that calls 'Now'
                    C
And I Want to Believe
                                   G
That a light is shining through somehow

                    Bb
And I Want to Believe
                        F
And You Want to Believe
                     C
And We Want to Believe
                    G
And We Want to Live 
                    Ab
Oh, We Want to Live
                Bb
We Want to Live
                C
We Want to Live
