1. Something you‘ve heard,
somewhere you‘ve seen,
D - C G
too real to
ignore, you‘ve chosen not to
believe.
C D - C G
From the black of their pain to the white of their fear,
C
D - C G
in
the dust they die while Eden lies
near.
Bb
The freedom bought, changed
hands, was sold,
C

this
heat of love has turned ice-cold.
C G C - D
Na na na na, na na
na na, we just can‘t escape
it !
Bm C D
Na na na na, na na na
na, like flames reaching out from the sun.

2. From the garden of love,
been banished too long,
D
G
and
the balance will shift between the weak and the strong,
D F
once
they would beg and they would plead,
C - G D
but
now they demand, divided by those that need
C
G
and
those that command.
Bb
The freedom bought, changed
hands, was sold,
C
this
heat of love has turned ice-cold.
- Bb
And we never learn but we know too well,
C - D
heaven‘s died and gone to
hell.

Na na na na, na na
na na, we just can‘t escape
it !

D
+ Now you watch but you should have run,
D
like
flames that leap from the base of the sun.
D Bb - C Bb
And you dream you‘re free, but
you‘ll awake, too much, too late,
C D
too
much, too late.
