Em
There’s no sense, the fire burns

     C
When wisdom fails it changes all

    D                                 Am      G
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning

Em
Blood red skies, It feels so cold

   C
No innocence, we play our role

    D                               Am     G
The wheel embodies all where are we going
PRE-CHORUS
C                                      Em
All in all you’d expect the wise to be wiser, fallen from grace

    C
And all and all I guess

                     D       B
We should have known better, ’cause...
CHORUS
           Em            C
What about us? Isn’t it enough?

         D          Am
No we’re not in paradise

               Em                   C
This is who we are, this is what we got

         D           Bm
No, it's not our paradise

         C
But it’s all we want,

         Em                       D     Bm
And it's all that we’re fighting for

                 C D  Em
Though it’s not pa-aradise
INTERLUDE (Em) | Em | D | C D | VERSE 2
Em
You and us, or I and them

      C
There comes a time to take a stand

    D                                   Am       G
The wheel is watching all, it keeps on burning

    Em
The venom works, it’s like a curse

  C
A Trojan horse, when will we learn?

    D                                Am        G
The wheel embodies all, that keeps returning
PRE-CHORUS
C                                      Em

We should have known better, ’cause...
