There's a man with a wife and three children

Who's been told he can work
Am7Am7           D MajorD
There's a boy who's been told there's no future

And I can hear them crying

The past ain't no friend of mine

Am7Am7           D MajorD
There's a failure who is standing on the corner
Am7Am7        D MajorD
For he cannot see hope
Am7Am7            D MajorD
There's a blind man who is standing at the crossroads
Am7Am7        FF
For he cannot see light
G+G           FF
And as we fire the candles
G+G           FF
We must make sure they burn through the night

There be no light
