I bless you madly
SIm SIb RE
Sadly as I tie my shoe
RE/DO
I love you badly
SIm SIb RE RE/DO
Just in time, at times, I guess
SIm SIb RE RE/DO
Because of you I need to rest
SIm SIb RE
Because it~s you that sets the test
MIb SIbm
So much has gone and little is new
SIbm LA
And as the sparrow sings
FA#
Dawn chorus for
SIbm
Someone else to hear
SIbm LA
The thinker sits alone
FA# SIbm
Growing older
And so bitter
FA SIbm
~~I gave Them life, I gave Them all
DO FAm
They drained my very soul...dry
FA SIbm
I crushed my heart to ease Their pains
DO FAm SOL#
No thought for me remains there
SIbm DO#
Nothing can they spare
DO
What of me?
LAm FA
Who praised Their efforts to be free?
SOL DO
Words of strength and care and sympathy
LAm FA
I open doors that would have blocked their way
SOL DO
I braved Their cause to guide for little pay
LAm FA
I ravaged at my finanace just for Those
SOL DO
Those whose claims were steeped in peace, tranquility
LAm FA
Those who said a new world, new ways ever free
SOL DO
Those whose promises stretched in hope and grace for me.~~
LAm FA SOL

RE/DO
I love you badly
SIm SIb RE RE/DO

MIb SIbm
So much has gone and little is new
SIbm LA
And as the sunrise stream
FA# SIbm
Flickers on me
SIbm LA
My friends talk of glory, untold dream
FA# SIbm
Where all is God and God is just a word
FA SIbm
~~We had a friend, a talking man
DO FAm
Who spoke of many powers that he had
FA SIbm
Not of the best of men but Ours
DO FAm SOL#
We used him, We let him use his powers
SIbm DO#
We let him fill our needs
DO
Now we are strong.
LAm FA
And the road is coming to its end
SOL DO
Now the damned have not time to make amends
LAm FA
No purse of token fortunes stands in Our way
SOL DO
The silent guns of love will blast the sky
LAm FA
We broke the ruptured structure build of age
SOL DO
Our weapons were tongues of crying rage
LAm FA
Where money stood we planted seeds of rebirth
SOL DO
And stabbed the backs of fathers, sons of dirt
LAm
Infiltrated business cesspools
FA
Hating through Our sleeves
SOL
Yea, and We slit the Catholic throat
DO
Stoned the poor on slogans as:
-Wish You Could Hear-
LAm
-Love Is All We Need-
-Kick Out The Jams-
-Kick Out Your Mother-
FA
-Cut Up Your Friend-
SOL
-Screw Up Your Brother or He~ll Get You In the End-
DO LAm
And We Know the Flag of Love is from Above
FA
And We Can Force You to Be Free
SOL DO
And We Can Force You to Believe.~~
LAm
And I close my eyes and tighten up my brain
FA
For I once read a book in which the lovers were slain
SOL
For they Knew not the words of the Free States~ refrain,
It said:
DO
~~I Believe in the Power of Good
LAm
I Believe in the State of Love
FA
I Will Fight For the Right to be Right
SOL
DO
I Will Kill for the Good of the Fight for the Right to be Right.~~
LAm FA
And I open my eyes to look around
SOL
And I see a child laid slain on the ground
DO LAm
As a love machine lumbers through desolation rows
FA SOL
Ploughing down man, woman, listening to its command
DO
But not hearing anymore-
LAm FA
Not hearing anymore
SOL
Just the shrieks from the old rich
DO
And I Want to Believe
SOL
In the madness that calls ~Now~
DO
And I Want to Believe
SOL
That a light is shining through somehow
SIb
And I Want to Believe
FA
And You Want to Believe
DO
And We Want to Believe
SOL
And We Want to Live
