Broken Circles

Am fired forty rounds in the centre of town G he thought to bring the world around Am sleepless nights with god and christ C G the new messiah Am burn the world to change the days G can be done in better ways Am but to make news and front page C G you’ve gotta aim higher Am they didn’t build jerusalem G Am they didn’t find the land G Am for reasons of security G C Am they couldn’t find the plans G Am and we’re left standing watching from below G C G no new songs and no new heroes G Am standing on the sidelines watching the flow G C G waiting for the day the circle’s broken Am G Am C G Am took the mic to save day G the rock star’s going to have his say Am C G interpret this in any way as if it matters Am cos nothing’s black and nothing’s white G nothing appears to be quite right Am it’ll be this way until the day C G the circle’s shattered Am i heard an old song yesterday G Am about a better world G you know the story Am well , they’re all the same G C Am the boy gets the girl G Am and we’re left standing watching from below G C G no new songs and no new heroes G Am standing on the sidelines watching the flow G C G waiting for the day the circle’s broken Am G Am C G Am from the tips of your fingers the rest is numb G you begin to feel the warmth of the sun Am it’s taken away been taking away C G all you once knew Am taking it back takes all you’ve got G no time to sit and watch it rot Am believe it’s yours and not the lies C G or all hell to you Am they didn’t build jerusalem G Am they didn’t find the land G Am for reasons of security G C Am they couldn’t find the plans G Am and we’re left standing watching from below G C G no new songs and no new heroes G Am standing on the sidelines watching the flow G C G Am . . . waiting for the day the circle’s broken
