From the album "This Is the Story" (1987) Spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/track/257rwII8I1bgOt4awMg57m?si=e1ab86c609de4143 [Intro] | E | G#m | F#m | E | | E | G#m | F#m | [Verse 1]
E       G#m
 Since I started being impressed

A                   E
 By the things that move me

E       G#m
 All the treasures that I missed

A                          E
 Came back to stand around me

B         B7               E
 And as I curse the wasted time

B          B7      E
 I lift my head to say

E             G#m
 Thank you God you gave the strength

A                     E
 That helped me walk away
[Verse 2]
E       G#m
 All the fear and anger

A                      E
 Still stays within my heart

E     G#m
 And I can't recall the last time

A                    E
 I imagined they'd depart

B            B7                E
 But this is what I'm going to do

B                B7    E
 When they force me to doubt

E        G#m
 I'll ask for what I know remains

A                    E
 To help me sing them out

B         E
Just sing it
[Interlude]
E         G#m       A     E
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, oh, uoh

E         G#m       A         E
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, oh-uoh, uoh
[Verse 3]
E       G#m
 As rays of sun shine through the clouds

A                    E
 And heat the soaking ground

E       G#m
 So when we come to sing the shouts

A                       E
 We'll burn the theatres down

B          B7           E
 Let every disbelieving sneer

B               B7     E
 That looked me in the back

E     G#m
 Turn, come towards us

A                     E    B    E
 And feel the first attack
[Outro]
E         G#m       A     E
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, oh

E         G#m       A     E
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, oh

E         G#m       A     E
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
