A - Amaj7 - A7 - Dm6 - Dm6/F       G          A         
                             hooho    hohoho     yeah, mmm

Amaj7                         A7      Dm6 - Dm6/F - G           
      mmm tuutuutuu hohoho -     hoo 

A                                 Amaj7                                    
   These are the days of the open         hand

                      A7                                              
They will not be the     last - Look around now

       Dm6                     Dm6/F           G         A                         
These      are the days of the        beggars    and the    choosers

                               Amaj7                                    
This is the year of the hungry        man

                       A7                                             
Whose place is in the    past - Hand in hand 

     Dm6                      Dm6/F           G        Bm                            
with      ignorance And le -        gitimate     ex -     cuses

                            F#7/A#                                       
The rich declare themselves         poor

                        D/A                                            
And most of us are not       sure

                                 E/G#                                   
If we have too much - But we'll        take our chance

       E                F#          Bm                                      
'Cause   God's stopped      keeping     score

                            F#7/A#                                       
I guess somewhere along the         way

                               D/A                                    
He must have let us all out to       play

                    E/G#                                               
Turned his back and        all God's children

E         Esus4/F#          A                                                     
   Crept           out the    back door

                      Amaj7                                             
And it's hard to love,       there's so much to hate

A7                                                                   
   Hanging on to hope

Dm6              Dm6/F        G          A                                          
     When there        is no    hope to    speak of

                          Amaj7                               A7             
And the wounded skies a -       bove say it's much, much too     late

      Dm6                       Dm6/F      G             A                         
Well       maybe we should all         be    praying for    time

Amaj7                   A7     Dm6          Dm6/F       G        A                             
       toehoehoe hohoho    hoo     hoo-oo -        hoo     hoho     yeah
Amaj7 - A7 - Dm6 - Dm6/F - G -
A                                   Amaj7                                   
   These are the days of the empty        hand

                            A7                                        
Oh you hold on to what you     can - And charity 

     Dm6                Dm6/F          G                                        
is a      coat you wear        twice a     year

A                                 Amaj7                                    
   This is the year of the guilty        man

                         A7                                           
Your television takes a     stand - And you find 

     Dm6                      Dm6/F      G        Bm                                 
that      what was over there        is     over     here

                                F#7/A#                                    
So you scream from behind your         door

                                 D/A                                   
Say what's mine is mine and not       yours

                              E/G#                                      
I may have too much but I'll        take my chances

       E                F#          Bm                                      
'Cause    God's stopped     keeping     score

                                 F#7/A#                                  
And you cling to the things they         sold you

                                  D/A                                 
Did you cover your eyes when they       told you
That he can't come back
           E/G#                  E      Esus4/F#        A
'Cause he        has no children    to           come      back for

                       Amaj7                                            
And it's hard to love,        there's so much to hate

A7                                                                   
   Hanging on to hope

Dm6             Dm6/F                    A
    When there         is no G  hope to    speak of

                           Amaj7                        A7
And the wounded skies a -        bove say it's much too      late

   Dm6                       Dm6/F      G              A
So      maybe we should all         be    praying for     time

Amaj7              A7          Dm6       Dm6/F        G      A  
       toehoehoe -     hoo-oo -      hoo        hoho    yeah
