Intro :A# A#maj7 A#7 D#m G# (x2)
A# These are the days of the open A#maj7hand
They will not be the A#7last look around now
These D#mare the days of the beggars G#and the A#choosers
This is the year of the hungry A#maj7man
Whose place is in the A#7past
Hand in hand with D#mignorance
And legitiG#mate exCmcuses
Refrain
The rich declare themCm(maj7)/Bselves poor
And most of us are not D#/A#sure
If we have too much, but we'll F/Atake our chances
Because god's stopped keeping Cmscore
I guess somewhere along the Cm(maj7)/Bway
He must have let us all out to D#/A#play
Turned his back and F/Aall god's children
Crept out the A#back door
And it's hard to love, A#maj7 there's so much to hate
A#7 Hanging on to hope
D#m When there is no G#hope to A#speak of
And the wounded skies aA#maj7bove say it's much, much too A#7late
Well D#mmaybe we should all be G#praying for A#time
A#maj7 A#7 D#m G#
A# A#maj9 A#7 D#m G#
A# These are the days of the empty A#maj7hand
Oh! You hold on to what you A#7can
And charity is a D#mcoat you wear twice a G#year
A# This is the year of the guilty A#maj7man
Your television takes a A#7stand
And you find that D#mwhat was over there G#is over Cmhere
Refrain
So you scream from behind your Cm(maj7)/Bdoor
Say "what's mine is mine and not D#/A#yours"
I may have too much but i'll F/Atake my chances
Because god's stopped keeping Cmscore
And you cling to the things they Cm(maj7)/Bsold you
Did you cover your eyes when they D#/A#told you
That he can't come back, because he F/Ahas no children to come A#back for
And it's hard to love,A#maj7 there's so much to hate
A#7 Hanging on to hope
D#m When there is no G#hope to A#speak of
And the wounded skies aA#maj7bove say it's much, too A#7late
So D#mmaybe we should all be G#praying for A#time
A#maj9 A#7 D#m G#
