[Intro]
Em7 Am7 x2
[Verse 1]
Em7Heavens above what have we Am7done
Oh, we've Em7killed off the thing we had so Am7little of
True, Em7love has no truth without a Am7price
But the Gcost of loving has been Bmblown sky Cmaj7high
[Instrumental]
Em7 Am7 x2
[Verse 2]
Em7Spend on the hope the call The AmPeaceAm7maker
And Em7pray to their God - the Heavy Am7Rainmaker
Paegans Em7of wealth they dance soAm7 freely
As Gmaj7they give away the life that comes so Gm7cheaply G7
[Bridge]
Don't you Fmaj7see - there's a better way for Dm7us to be
And in the Fmaj7back of your mind - you know its just a Dm7matter of time
[Chorus]
D FHeaven's above (heavens) C
A CHeaven's above (Dmheavens)
C FHeaven's above (Gheavens)
D Dm7Heaven's above (heavens)
[Instrumental]
Em7 Am7 x2
Bm7 Cmaj7
[Verse 3]
Em7Time here today is life toAm7morrow
Oh but Em7life means less now the time is Am7borrowed
EmPaid for in blood, the Am7donors seem keen
As they Gmaj7realise too late they've been so Gm7cheated
[Bridge]
Don't you Fmaj7see - there's a better way for Dm7us to be
And in the Fmaj7back of your mind - you know its just a Dm7matter of time
[Verse 4]
Em7Surely by now we've paid the price
What Am7is there left to sacrifice
You Em7take the power - you take the pay
You Am7steal the will and have the say
I'm Em7sure by now there's not much left
One Am7hand on heart - one on a breast
You Em7steal the milk - you milk the land
But your Am7time is up - your time is sand
[Outro]
Em7 Am7 x2
