Evening Prayer

Bb
I wasted my twenties in submission
Bb
I thought I was outside the system
Bb
But I was rolling over for wealth 
and power
      Eb                      F
As if they really cared about me
    Bb
The kids are just getting started

They've only just learned how to 
howl

And most of them throw in the towel
Eb                          
'Bout the time that they turn 
         F
twenty-three
   Gm                      
If you've got the taste for 
      Dm
transcendence
     Gm                       
That translates your love into 
 Dm
action
    Gm                 Dm
And participate in the fight now
      Eb                    F
For a creed you can truly believe

[Verse 2]
  Bb
Tonight you've got fire in your 
bloodstream
Bb
If your frail human heart is still 
pumping
Bb
Then make this one night you'll 
remember
Eb                    F
A note you deliver by hand
    Bb
And when you get up in the morning

Let no man return it to sender
    Gm                   Dm
And pour gasoline on the embers
Gm                       Dm
Keep yourself a physical record
   Gm                    Dm
Deliver that fire to the real world
    Eb                     F
And tell 'em that E Furman sent ya


[Chorus]

Time to do justice for the poor
 Eb

It is time for the evening prayer
 Eb

        Gm         F       Gm     
Time to do justice for the poor
 Eb
