-Wish You Could HeCar-
-Love Is All We Need-Am
-Kick Out The Jams- Am
-Kick Out Your Mother-Am
-CuFt Up Your Friend-
-Screw Up Your Brother or He'll Get You In tGhe End-
And We KnowC the Flag of Love is from Above Am
And We Can Force FYou to Be Free
And We Can Force GYou to Believe.'' C
And I close my eyes and tighten up Ammy brain
For I once read a book in which the lovers were slaFin
For they Knew not the words of the Free States' RefrainG
It said :
G
I CBelieve in the Power of Good
I BelAmieve in the State of Love
I Will FightF For the Right to be Right
I Will KillG for the Good of the Fight for the Right to be Right.'C
And I open my eyes tAmo look around F
And I see a child laid slain on the ground G
ACs a love machine lumbers tAmhrough desolation rows
PFloughing down man woman lGistening to its command
But not hearCing anymore
Not heariAmng anymore F
Just the shrieks Gfrom the old rich
And I Want to BelieveC
In the madness that calls 'NGow'
And I Want to BelieveC
That a light is shining through someGhow
And I Want to BelieveBb
And You Want to Believe F
And We Want to BelieveC
And We Want to Live G
Oh We Want to Live G#
