[Verse 1]
Em
Young hearts beating
Bm
In the middle of the night
C
Sounding like the thunder
G D
Of some sacrificial rite
Em
And the young hearts bleeding
Bm
For the freedom of their youth
C G
Struggle in the back seat
D
Find out the truth
D Em C D Bm C G D
[Verse 2]
Em
Young hands reaching
Bm
For the goal they can't attain
C G
His blood begins to boil
D
When he thinks that it's in vain
Em
And a young heart burdened
Bm
With the weight of vanity
C G
Summons all her strength
D
To save her purity
[Chorus 1]
D
Em C
They keep asking questions
D Bm
They keep hearing lies
C G
Don't tell the children
D
Cover their eyes
Em C
Remember the warning
D Bm
And all it implies
C D
We're seeing the dawn of
Em
Yesterday's skies
[Solo]

Yesterday's skies
