G                Em                   Bm7  C             Em
  Mother doesn't know where love has gone,   she says it must be 
           F                 C     G                 Em
youth that keeps us feeling strong.  I see it in her face 
                  Bm7    C              Em                   F
that's tuuuurned to ice,   and when she smiles she shows the lines 
        D
of sacrifice.


          C                D              G     D/F#        Em
And now I know what they sayin' there's a sun begins to fade. 
        C                Am    Am7       D               G
And we made our love on waste land and through the barricades


G         Em          Bm7 C               Em                  F
  Father made my history,   he fought for what he thought but set 
            C    G            Em             Bm7     C
us somehow free. He taught me what to say in school,   I learned
   Em               F                  D
it off by heart but now that's torn in two.


          C                D              G  D/F#      Em
And now I know what they sayin' in the music of the parade. 
        C                Am    Am7       D               G
And we made our love on waste land and through the barricade.


G          Em                 Bm7 C   Em                F 
  Born on different sides of life, we fear the same and feel 
             C      G          Em           Bm7  C       Em
all of this strife. So come to me when I'm asleep, we'll cross 
             F               D
the lines and dance upon the streets.

          C                D             G    D/F#        Em
And now I know what they sayin' as the drums begins to fade. 
        C                Am    Am7       D               G
And we made our love on waste land and through the barricades.


F     C                    G                       F
  Oh, turn around and I'll be there. Oh, there's a skylight 
           C                      G                 F
through my heart without baaaaaarry the gate. Oh, I thought we were 
          C                 G          D/F#        Em
the human race but we were just another borderline case.  
         C                                       Am7
And the stars reached out and touch, but there's always one 
  D
escape. 
 
    G               Em             Bm7  C              Em  
Oh,   I don't know when love was gone.    But in this troubled land 
     C                D      G          Em                Bm7   
desperation keeps us strong. The finest child is ruth so hard.
C                 Em                C             D  
  with nothing left to lose there's everything to go.


           C               D           G          D/F#       Em
And now I know what they sayin' it's a terrible beauty we've made
       C               Am    Am7      D                 G
So we make our love on waste land and through the barricades.

           C               D           G             D/F#     Em
And now I know what they sayin' as our hearts go to their graaaaaaves
         C               Am    Am7           D              G
And we made our love on waste land oh and through the barricades.
