[Intro]
G C A D G Em/G G
[Verse 1]
G C G Oh, I carried you in my arms through the hotel to our room Bb F C G The night was filled with music, those old historic tunes G Bb F G Songs of revolution, filled our hearts and fed our souls Bb F G As the fireworks exploded, like those cannons long ago
[Chorus]
G C G See the kids in the candlelight, spirits on the mend C G A D Every golden child tonight, feels changes on the wind G C G See the kids in the candlelight, see 'em shining bright C G A D G Em/G G Innocence beyond the fight, see the kids in the candlelight
[Instrumental]
C G A D G Em/G G
[Verse 2]
G C G Five hundred wooden saints below, their colors cracked and dry Bb F C G You said their stories should be told, did they suffer when they died G Bb F G Give us your tradition, give us hope and send us home Bb F G We'll be the cracked bells tolling, the voice of dust and bones
[Chorus]
G C G See the kids in the candlelight, spirits on the mend C G A D Every golden child tonight, feels changes on the wind G C G See the kids in the candlelight, see 'em shining bright C G A D G Em/G G Innocence beyond the fight, see the kids in the candlelight
[Instrumental]
C G C A D
[Verse 3]
G C G The pillow that you dream on, lies rolled up on the floor Bb F C G You tossed it at the TV screen at the drug lord and his war G C F G Thinking of the courtyard, forced a tear from your eyes Bb F G The white shirts in the moonlight, the warm forgiving smiles
[Chorus]
G C G See the kids in the candlelight, spirits on the mend C G A D Every golden child tonight, feels changes on the wind G C G See the kids in the candlelight, see 'em shining bright C G A D G Innocence beyond the fight, see the kids in the candlelight
[Outro]
G C A D G C G Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea
