Chords

[Intro] E E D F#m [Verse 1]
E
Listen to the rhythm, listen to the beat

E
It has a cold wind blowing up through the street

D                F#m
Soul crying out, people crying out

E
In through the valleys, in through the streets

E
Feel the whole world moving underneath our feet

D                           F#m
Something's going on I said what is going wrong

E
I feel them coming so close behind

E
Sister says, we're next in line

E
The man he says, that's OK

E
And the Government says you're gonna pay, pay, pay
[Chorus]
D          F#m
  And you pay

           E
Still you pay

             D               F#m
It's just a soul crying out

               E
It's just the people crying out

          E
It's the land crying out

           E
And I can hear you crying out

       D   A         E   D
And I say, I don't know

 A             E
Maybe I don't care

D
All I know is

   A                E
I gotta get out of here

         D
And I'm going

          F#m
Going any day

           Bm
Some sweet day

            D
Some sweet day

                E
I gotta find a way
E D F#m [Verse 2]
E
I can hear the lovers, whisper in the street

E
See a crowd has gathered underneath the heat

   D
I hear what they say

              F#m
But I don't believe what they say

E
I see the woman, with tears in her eyes

E
I hear the baby, calling in the night

E
Something on the bed, was it something she said

       D
Hell this is not right

          F#m
What goes on through the night

E
I hear her coming, all in my mind

E
Sweet common love, so hard to find

E
Someone said, man outside

E                                              D
And the people walk by, cos they're so blind
[Chorus]
D          F#m
  And you pay

           E
Still you pay

             D
It's just a soul crying out

          F#m
Just the people crying out

          E
It's the earth crying out

E
And I can hear you crying out

E
And I can feel you crying out

       D   A         E   D
And I say, I don't know

 A             E
Maybe I don't care

D
All I know is

   A                E
I gotta get out of here

         D
And I'm going

          F#m
Going any way

         Bm                D
Do you know, some place to go

                    E
I'm getting out of here

              Bm                 D
Where will I find some peace of mind

                    E
I'm getting out of here

I come singing to you

            D   F#m
Some sweet day

                E
I'm gonna walk away

It's just the children crying out

All the babies crying out

Any way, some sweet day

                 E
I'm gonna walk away

Turn away

It's just the soul crying out

              F#m              E
It's just the land crying out

        D
I wanna hear

            F#m
I want you here

      E
Some sweet day

        D
Just a soul crying out

       F#m                  E
Of a land crying out anyway

          D   F#m
When you say

           E
Some sweet day...
