Chords

      Am
Fired forty rounds in the centre of town

   G
He thought to bring the world around

Am
Sleepless nights with God and Christ

    C      G
The New Messiah

Am
Burn the world to change the days

G
Can be done in better ways

       Am
But to make news and front page

       C         G
You've gotta aim higher

                    Am
They didn't build Jerusalem

     G               Am
They didn't find the land

    G            Am
For reasons of security

     G        C        Am 
They couldn't find the plans

    G                   Am
And we're left standing watching from below

G                C      G
No new songs and no new heroes

G                         Am
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow

G                       C        G
Waiting for the day the circle's broken
Am G Am C G
Am
Took the mic to save day

    G
The rock star's going to have his say

  Am                         C     G   
interpret this in any way as if it matters

    Am
Cos nothing's black and nothing's white

G
Nothing appears to be quite right

Am
It'll be this way until the day

    C        G
The circle's shattered

                    Am
I heard an old song yesterday

 G             Am
About a better world

             G
You know the story

              Am
Well, They're all the same

    G   C        Am
The boy gets the girl

    G                   Am
And we're left standing watching from below

G                C      G
No new songs and no new heroes

G                         Am
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow

G                       C        G
Waiting for the day the circle's broken
Am G Am C G
         Am
From the tips of your fingers
The rest is numb
      G
You begin to feel the warmth of the sun

     Am
It's taken away been taking away

C       G
All you once knew

Am
Taking it back takes all you've got

   G
No time to sit and watch it rot

  Am
Believe it's yours and not the lies

   C        G
Or all hell to you

                    Am
They didn't build Jerusalem

     G               Am
They didn't find the land

    G            Am
For reasons of security

     G        C        Am 
They couldn't find the plans

    G                   Am
And we're left standing watching from below

G                C      G
No new songs and no new heroes

G                         Am
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow

G                       C        G     Am...
Waiting for the day the circle's broken
