There Stood The Fence

Em                                
 There stood the fence that penned
    G
 me in when I was younger
Em                        G
 This was the house where we all 
stayed
Em                           G
 There was a tree we used to hang 
out under
Em                  G
 This was the place where I played
      A                   Em7
 But now that's gone so I have to 
wonder
A                         Em7
 Is it worth the price we pay?
A                      Em7
 A long range test has put us under
A              -stop-      Em  G Em 
G
 And made us go away, go away...

Em                            
 This was the town where all my 
  G
friends and I had grown up
Em                   G
 The only place I've ever known

Em                            G
 A long gray street with some houses
 built on it
Em                     G
 Less than perfect but it was home
A                    Em7
 Now it's gone and I curse it in my 
darkness
A                            Em7
 This is the cross I have to bear
A                        Em7
 We pay the price of our own 
injustice
A              -stop-
 We made us go nowhere
         Em G     Em
 Go nowhere, nowhere

Em                      G
 This was our earth our garden of 
eden
Em                      G
 Took what we could and left her 
there bleeding
Em                      G
 And what became of the hopes and 
the dreams
Em                           G
 Did they die with us 'cause that's 
how it seems
A                             Em7
Here comes the rain can't you taste 
the acid?
A                    Em7
 Or has it left you numb?
A                         Em7
 This is the moral to the story I 
offer
A                -stop-
 Can you hear me son...
                 Em   G
Or have you gone away
  Em G
Away
  Em G fades
Away
