Standard tuning
Capo version (4th fret)
Intro chords:
Am - G - F - F - C - G
Verse:
The Amrains move Feastward in Gwaves of Csuccession
AmDrawing lines of gFrey across the Esky
With Amhistory just as cFlose as a Ghand on the Cshoulder
In Amhunger and iFmpatience we Ecry
The Ambattle against Fcorruption Grages in each Ccorner
There Ammust be something Fbetter, something Epure
And the Amcall it is Fanswered from the Gcaves to the Ccities
Come the Amdealers of SFalvation on EEarth
Violin part:
Am - F - G - C
Am - F - E
Am - F - G - C
Am - F - E
Verse:
We've Amseen the restless cFhildren at theG head of the Ccolumns
Come to Ampurify the Ffuture with the Earrogance of youth
AmNothing is as cFruel as the rGighteousness of iCnnocents
With Amautomatic weFapons and a Egospel of the truth
Chorus:
ERevolution for Dever, sCuccession of the Bseasons
WiCthin the blood of GNature, all rFaised to rot and dEie
F E Am - F - G - C etc.
This purity, purity is a lie
Violin part
Verse:
Now iAmmmaculate conFception in sGterilised lCaboratories
AmHow the vFanity goes Eon
Or in the Ammessage of the Fpreacher with his Gmorals and Cobsessions
The Amwars that we Fwage upon oEurselves
GPurity is a virtue, Fpurity is an angel
AmPurity is for madmen to make fEools of us all
So Amforgive yourself my fFriend, all tGhis will soon be Cover
What Amhappened here toFnight is Enothing at all
Chorus:
ERevolution for Dever, sCuccession of the Bseasons
WitChin the blood of NGature, all raFised to rot and diEe
F E Am - F - G - C etc.
This purity, purity is a lie
Violin part
I will Amalways see FBrendan at that Gbroken down Cpiano
His fAmingers thick and Fred, Eshaking on the keys
AmBattered by the Fyears of Galcohol and wCorking
Still pAmlaying with the fFaith that never Eleaves
So sAmit us down, Fbuy us a drink, Gtell us a good stCory
AmSing us a sonFg we Eknow to be true
I Amdon't give a dFamn that I Gnever will be Cworthy
Am F E Am... etc
Fear is the only enemy that I still know
Violin outro
I couldn't find these anywhere so I worked them out. 'Purity is a virtue...' may
not be 100% but it can work well this way.
Great song, enjoy.
