[Verse 1]
Once I was part of the Dmusic I heard
On the Cbough, or Dsweet between Emearth and sky
For joy of the beating of Dwings on high
CMy heart shot Bminto the Embreast of the bird G
[Verse 2]
I hear it now and I Dsee it fly B7
A life in wrinkles, aEmgain is stirred
My heart shoots Ginto the Ambreast of the bird
As it Cwill for sheer Bmlove 'till the Emlast long sigh

G C G D
[Verse 1]
I Graised my son the EmEighties way
CI never let him Drest a day
I said, "CWasting time can Donly lead to Glosing C G D
When Gyou're a man you'll Embe my son
And I've Cnever lost, I’ve Dalways won
There are Cthose who serve and Dthose who do the Gchoosing" C G
[Chorus]
And I said, "EmAlways fight, don't lose face
CAlways lead, never chase
ANo one knows the second place
So Dhurt and bleed, but win the Crace" D
[Verse 2]
He was Gnumber one in Emevery school
CHe couldn't stand a Dwimp or fool
Or Canyone who Ddribble-drooled of Gcaring C G D
And he Gwon the prizes, he Emwon the fame
CTill everybody Dknew his name
And they Cloved him for his Ddevil-may-care Gdaring C G F
[Verse 3]
And I Gliked his taste, I Emliked his style
And I Cknew that in a Dlittle while
He'd beCgin to use his Dcharm and guile to Gmake it C G D
He'd Gbe the boss man Emof this town
He’d Clet nobody Dpush him down
He'd be the Chardest, and the Dtoughest and he'd Gtake it C G
[Chorus]
And I said, "EmAlways fight, don't lose face
CAlways lead, never chase
ANo one knows the second place
So Dhurt and bleed, but win the Crace" D
[Verse 4]
So Gwhen he passed the Embig exam
I was Cproud he came, the DBig I Am
I could Csee he didn't give a Ddamn who Gthought it C G D
And I Gsaid it’s time you Emhad your wheels
CSo you can see how Dpower feels
So I Cfound the best and theD fastest, and I Gbought it C G
[Verse 5]
In his Csports car and designer jeans
He Gplayed the king of Emall the teens
And he Amsoon found out, Cmoney means, best Dlabel G D C
And the Ggirls he had wore Emsweet perfume
Their Cscent still lingered Din his room
In the Cmorning, he'd just Dsmile across the Gtable C G
{Instrumental]
Em C A
D G D G C
[Verse 6]
Then Glast week in a Emcountry lane
In Cdarkness and in Dpouring rain
A Cyoung kid must have Dbeen insane to Gtry him C G D
In a Gclapped out Ford with Emwhite-walled tyres
His Cchiming horn lit Dmy son's fires
As he Cflashed his beams and Dtried to roar on Gby him C G
[Verse 7]
And Clike the man I knew he'd be
GMy son chose to disEmagree
And they Amraced together Cfast to see who'd Dweaken G D C
And Gjust as my son Empulled ahead
A Cwhite-walled tyre Dlost its tread
And the Ctwo cars locked as Dflames became their Gbeacon C G
[Chorus]
And I said, "EmAlways fight, don't lose face
CAlways lead, never chase
ANo one knows the second place
So Dhurt and bleed, but win the Crace__D__"
[Verse 8]
I Graised my son the EmEighties way
CI never let him Drest a day
I said, "CWasting time can Donly lead to Glosing C G D
When Gyou're a man you'll Embe my son
And I've Cnever lost, I’ve Dalways won
There are Cthose who serve and Dthose who do the Gchoosing" C G
I know I was Cright to make him Dso afraid of Glosing C G
Because there are Cthose who serve and Dthose who do the Gchoosing

[Intro]
Am F G Am
[Verse 1]
Forty years of winter,F we never saw the sun Am
We never smiled at strangers, or Gtalked to anyone F
For there were walls between us, so Gno one came too near
And Amwho knows who'd have seen us,G we never lost that fear
We Ambowed our heads in silence, we Fall lived by their law
They Amruled us with their violence and the Gknock upon the door
We Fclung to hope with sorrow, tried Gnot to hear the screams
ToAmmorrow and tomorrow, but Dstill we had our dreams
[Verse 2]
Of spring aGgain, the first we'd Csee
Of spring aAgain, when we'd be Dfree
The tales we'd B7tell of how we'd Emstand
As tyrants Afell, across our Dland
Let Spring reGturn once more to CPrague
Take down the Awall, disarm the Dguard
It's time to B7sing our long lost Emsong
They said was Adead, they said was Dwrong
Let Spring reGturn, let playwrights Crule
Let poets Arhyme the sins of Dfools
Let Spring beGgin in BuchaCrest
And in BerAlin,D let Spring beCgin
[Instrumental]
C7 Am E Am F G Am
[Verse 3]
Then we heard the whispers, they Fechoed on the wind
We Amstood in darkened corners where the Gposters had been pinned
FSomeone said "Together", Gsomeone said "We may"
AmSomeone said "No, never", then Gsomeone said "Today"
So Amsuddenly it happened, we Fnever stopped to think
We Amfilled the square with people beGfore the guards could blink
They Flost their day forever when they Gwashed the stones with blood
The Ampeople were a river, then the Driver was a flood
[Verse 4]
It's Spring aGgain, the first we'll Csee
It's Spring aAgain, and we are Dfree
The Summer B7calls, but we must Emstand
As tyrants Afall, across our Dland
Let Spring reGturn once more to CPrague
Take down the Awall, disarm the Dguard
It's time to B7sing our long lost Emsong
They said was Adead, they said was Dwrong
It's Spring aGgain, the playwright Crules
The poet Arhymes the sins of Dfools
Let Spring beGgin in BuchaCrest
And in BerAlin,D let Spring beCgin____

He saw them coming through the FBerlin Wall Am
And there were tears in his Feyes Am
He'd never thought he'd see that Gconcrete fall F
He felt their joy and their surE7prise Am
He saw them walking past the Fborder guard Am
He saw them wonder at their Fgain Am
But deep inside he knew that Gevery yard F
They walked towards another E7pain
That needed liberaAmtion F Am F Am
[Verse 2]
He saw them in the Ku Dam Fshop and store Am
With freedom money in their Fhands Am
Soon it was gone but still they Gwanted more F
To take back to their MotherE7land Am
He saw her move towards a Fpair of jeans Am
He saw him move towards a Fbar Am
But as they neither of them Ghad the means F
He knew they'd travelled much too E7far
Away from liberaAmtion F Am F G
[Verse 3]
He'd been on the treadmill every day F
He'd been the model employee G
He'd built the miracle, but now he'd say F
Where is the miracle for me? Bm
He owed the bank, he owed the corner store C
He owed the college, owed the town D
Since shaking hands they'd showed him to the door G
And then they'd closed his office E7down Am F Am F Am
[Verse 4]
He saw them coming through the FBerlin Wall Am
And there were tears in his Feyes Am
He'd never thought he'd see that Gconcrete fall F
He felt their joy and their surE7prise Am
But as they came to roll those Fstones away Am
With all their hopes and all their Fdreams Am
He knew that day was not the Gtime to say F
Freedom is never what it E7seems
We all need liberaAmtion F Am

[Verse 1]
Come, lock the door up tight, the night's for sleepCing D
Hiding in the dark, no light must Gshow
And did you paste up pictures of your Cheroes? D
To ask of them the answers they don't Gknow
[Verse 2]
EmCowboy kings who wore the white of Cfreedom D
Where were they to A7save you from the Dflame? Em
The yellow star would never shine like Csilver
And the DSheriff would soon A7learn to live with Dshame

[Verse 3]
There was no help for children in the Cshadows D
Who never knew the meaning of their Gpain
The reasons give no answers to the Cquestions
And Dnow the circle brings them round aGgain
[Verse 4]
I Empause inside your room and wait for Cwhispers D
An echo of a A7voice that calls your Dname
To Emtell you that the world still welcomes Clovers
But the Dheadlines for the A7news are still the Dsame
They're still the Emsame, still the Dsame
Still the Emsame, still the CsamDe G

[Verse 5]
And hidden in the diary they are Cselling D
You offer me a mirror for toGday
In which I see the image of toCmorrow
And I Dstare awhile, then turn, and walk aGway Em
Walk aCway,D walk awayC D C G

EmCaviar on the table, ChamDpagne in the glass
We Emlaughed and we jeered at the Dpoor working class
We Emdrank to their ruin, we Ddrank to their shame
We Gpissed on their problems, said B7they were to blame
Oh, the Emway we lived then, the Dway we lived then
The Emway we lived then
[Verse 2]
EmJason wore braces and Dslicked his hair down
EmBen had the number of Deach deb in town
EmI was a member of Devery new club
And I Gused my gold card to B7pay every sub
For the Emway we lived then, the Dway we lived then
The Emway we lived then

Oh, the way we lived Dthen
Selling Deutschmark or EmYen
Never thinking of Dwhere did it come from
How Clong would it last us, or B7when
Would we all have to Empay for this mad holiDday
For the Porsche and the GRolls that were our only Dgoals
Me and Jason and B7Ben
Oh, the way we lived Emthen D Em D
[Verse 3]
EmJason met Sarah, a Dgirl in P.R.
They Emhad a white wedding, all Dpaid for by Pa

It was Gtwo hundred K, but then B7prices were mad
The Emway we lived then, the Dway we lived then
The Emway we lived then
[Verse 4]
EmJason said, three years, we'll Dsell and move on
Then Emsuddenly, we turned and DMaggie was gone

So, we Gdrank to the sending of a B7message to hell
Oh, the Emway we lived then, the Dway we lived then

Oh, the way we lived Dthen
Selling Deutschmark or EmYen

EmSarah got pregnant, then DJason got fired
EmBen took a pay cut and DI felt too tired
