Start Jamming...
Young men up on the hillside teaching [B] the ways
[F#m] We tried winning them [A] all, we tried [G#m] to keep [C#m] the flame
[E] Old men marched from the outside, running [B] their way
[F#m] Threatened by the voice [A] of the paragon
We knew [G#m] that it would not [C#m] take long, [A] we knew [G#m] that it would not [C#m] take long
Nobody knew his secret [E]
ambition, [A] nobody knew [B] who he [F#] made
[C#m] People feel old rules speak in [D#]
tradition, [A] no one [B] found a [C#m]
way
He was indulged in powerful [E]
decisions, [A] but he could not [B] afford [E] to fail
[G#m] Nobody knew his secret [E]
ambition, [A] was to live [B] a life [E] of war

[C#m] [E]
His wrists shaking the temple, his words were low
[B] [F#m] Healing [C#] all the seraphs [A] they, his power no one [C#m] could despise
[E]
Some say death to the radical, he's laying out a [B] line
[F#m]
Some say praise be the [A] miracle, perhaps it's a [G#m] blessed [C#m] sign
[A]
A blessed sign, the charm of [C#m] Christ
Nobody [A] knew his secret ambition, [A]
nobody knew who he [B] made
[E] [C#m]
People [A] feel old rules speak in tradition, [A]
