C Em   F    C   Cm   D


[Verse]
G                Em              
  Mother doesn't know where love 
     Bm7  C             Em
has gone,   she says it must be
           F               C       
youth that keeps us feeling strong.
G                 Em
  I see it in her face
           Bm7       C            
that's turned to ice,  and when 
  Em                   F
she smiles she shows the lines
        D
of sacrifice.


[Chorus]
          C                D      
And now I know what they sayin' as
      G             Em
 the sun begins to fade.
        C                Am    C 
And we made our love on waste 
        D               G
land and through the barricades.


[Verse]
G       Em          Bm7 C      
Father made my history, he 
       Em                    F
fought for what he thought would set
            C    G            Em 
us somehow free. He taught me 
            Bm7    C
what to say in school, I learned
   Em               F             
it off by heart but now that's 
     D
torn in two.

[Chorus]
          C               D       
And now I know what they sayin' in
     G               Em
 the music of the parade.
       C                Am     C 
And we made our love on waste 
        D              G
land and through the barricade.


[Verse]
G        Em                 Bm7 
Born on different sides of life,
C   Em                F
 we fear the same and feel
             C      G          Em
all of this strife. So come to me
           Bm7  C       Em
 when I'm asleep, we'll cross
             F              
the lines and dance upon the 
 D
streets.


[Chorus]
          C                D      
And now I know what they sayin' as
      G              Em
 the drums begins to fade.
       C                 Am    C 
And we made our love on 
      D                 G
waste-land and through the 
barricades.


[Bridge]
F   C                    G      
Oh, turn around and I'll be 
                 F
there. Oh, there's a scar right
           C                     
through my heart but I'll bear it 
  G           F
again. Oh, I thought we were
          C                 G 
the human race but we were just 
                     Em
another borderline case. And
     C                           
the stars reached out and tell us 
                         D
there's always one escape.


[Verse]
G           D/F#                 
Oh, I don't know when love was 
Em C            Em
gone. But in this troubled land
     C                D     
desperation keeps us strong. 
G          D/F#           Em
Friday's child so full of soul
C             Em                  
 with nothing left to lose there's
 C             D
 everything to go.


[Chorus]
           C               D      
And now I know what they sayin' 
     G                     Em
it's a terrible beauty we've made.
       C               Am    C   
We made our love on waste-land 
      D                 G
and through the barricades.

           C               D      
And now I know what they sayin' as
     Em         D         C
 our hearts go to their graves.
         C              Am    C  
And we made our love on waste 
         D
land oh and through the barricades.
