[G] _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ [Em] Mother doesn't know where [Bm] love has gone.
_ _ [C] [Em] She says it must be [F] youth that keeps us [C] feeling strong.
[G] I [Em] see it in her face that's [Bm] turned to ice.
_ [C] [Em] And when she smiles, she shows the lines [D] of sacrifice.
And [C] now I know [G] what they're saying as our sun [Em] begins to fade. _
[C] When we made our [Am] love on _ wasteland [D]
into the [G] _ _ barricades.
_ [Em] Father made my [Bm] history.
_ _ [C] _ [Em] Fought for what he thought [F] would set us [C] somehow free.
[G] He [Em] taught me what to [Bm] say in school.
I _ [C] _ [Em] learned it off by heart, but now [D] that's taught me to lose you.
[Bm] And [C] now I know [D] what they're saying [G] in the music [Em] of the brain. _
[C] When we made our [Am] love on _ wasteland [D]
into the [F] _ _ [C] barricades. _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Fall on different [D] sides of life. _
_ [C] _ [Em] We fear the [F] same, but feel all of their strife.
[G] So [Bm] come to me when I'm asleep.
_ [C] _ _ [Em] We'll cross the [C] lines and dance [D] upon the streets.
And [C] now I know [D] what they're saying [G] as the drums begin [Em] to fade.
_ [C] When we made our [Am] love on _ wasteland [D] [G] into the _ _ barricades.
[F] _ [C] Oh, turn around, [G] female. _
[F] Oh, there's a scar on [C] _ _ [G] _ your mane.
[F] Oh, I thought we were the [C] human race.
But we were [Em] just another borderline cage.
_ [C] And the stars reach down and tell us [D] that there's always one escape.
_ [G] Oh, _ [D] _
[Em] our love is gone.
_ [G] _ [C] But [Em] in this troubled land, [C] desperation [D] keeps us strong.
[G] _ The brightest [D] child is [Em] full of soul.
_ _ [C] With nothing left [G] to lose, [C] there's everything [D] to go.
_ [G] [C] Now I know [D] what they're saying.
[G] It's a [D] terrible [Em] beauty we've made.
[Bm] [C] So we make our [Am] love on wasteland _ [D]
into the [G] _ _ [D] barricades.
And [C] now I know [D] what they're saying [Em] as our [G] hearts go [C] to their graves.
When we made our [Am] love on _ _ _ [C] _ wasteland [D] into _ the [F] barricades. _
