    C    G         D       Em
The satellites are raining down

       Bm            C
On the international room

        G               D                 G
There's nothing secret, nothing sacred anymore

        C  G            D            Em
All the soldiers of the world are turning

Bm       C
History around

        G            D                         G
They're with me now, they're breaking down the door
[Verse 2]

One mother's daughter has seen her brothers

Bm                 C
Taken to the shadowlands

          G           D                 G
Now she's waiting for six soldiers to return

    C       G        D           Em
And another mother's daughter 's down

Bm                C
On channel twenty one

            G             D              G
Where she's opened up her life to let it burn
[Chorus]
G             Em
Pictures in a room

C               Em      C
I can't take it anymore

            G        C        Em        D       G     G
And I can't sing the pains of hope in a torn... world

Hits and hooks and riffs that shine as new

       C        G        D        Em
As the refugees come in, live and dying,

Bm               C
miles across the snow

            G                 D                  G
And there's nothing that this stunning world can do

On a Sunday afternoon

      G              D                G
She's opened for the world to take it all

      C       G            D      Em
Where we face our sweetest demons in the hands

Bm           C
Of flesh and love

She's aching at the stations of the fall
