[Verse 1]
Em
The biggest companies in the world 
in conference
D                C
in Geneva by the lakeside
Em                           D   
Warm smiles friendly faces- Peace
              C
 proposals in briefcases
Em
Lines of borders on the map on the 
table
D                 C
They replace with dotted lines

Then they started to unwind
Em
Within a week all the refugees of 
the world
D                  C
Lived in five-star hotels
Em                               
Twenty-four hour room-service- 
D              C
free telephone- no bills
Em                          
And the trucks got through to 
          D              C
Africa- into Eritrea and the Sudan
Em                               
Laden down with western surplus- it 
D
served it's purpose

Eased a conscience or two

[Chorus]
         C      D*          
She said don't fool me now- I 
  G                            C
believe every word that you said
C      D*                  Em
Don't hold out while it's sounding 
so good
C      D*                  G    
Don't fool around when what you 
                   C
believe could come true
C      D*       Em       C    
Don't hold your breath- Don't 
D*        Em
hold your breath

Bank- baby- it was Palestine
Em
The French stopped nuking the

All of my innocence long since 
           D
turned to dust
G/B        C         A/C#       
I carry my cynicsm- like a 
          D
tourist with a camera

[Verse 3]
      Em                           
Yeah! You and me my sweet darling- 
 D                  C
we'll grow old with grace
Em                                
And our children will grow up in 
   D        C
the valley of love
Em                                
They'll be so damn well educated-

Em
And we'll sit back with our arms 
folded

Watch 'em change it! Watch it burn!
