Bm E Bm E Bm E
[Verse 1]
F#m B F#m
I thought of you when they closed down the school
B F#m
And the hospital too
E
Did they think that you were better?
F#m
They were wrong
B F#m
You had so many friends
B F#m
They all left you in the end
E
‘Cause they couldn’t take the patter
[Chorus Part 1]
Bm E Bm
And I’ll see you baby when the clans rise again
E Bm D
Women and men united by a struggle
Bm
Going down
E Bm
You’ve got to walk into the water
E Bm
With your sister and your daughter
G
In this free world
[Verse 2]
F#m B F#m
If I wore your shades could I share your point of view?
B F#m
Could I make you feel better?
E
Paint a picture, write a letter?
F#m B
Well I know what you’re saying
F#m B
But I see the things you do
F#m B
And it’s much too dangerous
E
To get closer to you
[Chorus]
Bm E Bm
But I will see you baby when the clans rise again
E Bm D
Women and men united by the struggle
Bm
Going down
E Bm
With a pocketful of plastic
E Bm
Like a dollar on elastic
G A G
In this free world
A Bm
I wouldn’t tell you if I didn’t (care)
Bm E Bm
I’ll see you baby when the clans rise again
E Bm D
Women and men united by the struggle
Bm E Bm
And the ghettoes are full of Mercedes Benz
E Bm
And you’d never hurt a friend
G
Who wouldn’t tell you
[Verse 3]
F#m B F#m
It’s cold and it’s going to get colder
B F#m
You may not get much older
E
You’re much too scared of living
F#m B F#m
And to die is a reliable exit
B F#m
So you push it and you test it
E
With Thunderbird and Rivin
[Chorus]
Bm E Bm
I’ll see you baby when the clans rise again
E Bm D
Women and men united by the struggle
Bm
In this free world baby
E Bm
Got to take it got to grab it
E Bm
Got to get it up and shag it
G A
In this free world
Bm
Going down
E Bm
You’ve got to get into the water
E Bm
Like a lamb goes to the slaughter
G
In this free world baby
Bm
Going down
E Bm
With a pocketful of plastic
E Bm
Like a dollar on elastic
G A G
In this free world
A Bm
I wouldn’t tell you if I didn’t care
