[Verse 1]
Bb I wasted my twenties in submission Bb I thought I was outside the system Bb But I was rolling over for wealth and power Eb F As if they really cared about me Bb The kids are just getting started
They've only just learned how to howl
And most of them throw in the towel
Eb F 'Bout the time that they turn twenty-three Gm Dm If you've got the taste for transcendence Gm Dm That translates your love into action Gm Dm And participate in the fight now Eb F For a creed you can truly believe
[Chorus]
Bb F Bb Eb It is time for the evening prayer Gm F Gm Eb Time to do justice for the poor Bb F Bb Eb It is time for the evening prayer Gm F Eb Time to do justice for the poor
Bb
[Verse 2]
Bb Tonight you've got fire in your bloodstream Bb If your frail human heart is still pumping Bb Then make this one night you'll remember Eb F A note you deliver by hand Bb And when you get up in the morning
Let no man return it to sender
Gm Dm And pour gasoline on the embers Gm Dm Keep yourself a physical record Gm Dm Deliver that fire to the real world Eb F And tell 'em that E Furman sent ya
[Chorus]
Bb F Bb Eb It is time for the evening prayer Gm F Gm Eb Time to do justice for the poor Bb F Bb Eb It is time for the evening prayer Gm F Gm Eb Time to do justice for the poor
