Verse 1:
G+G
So you flung your fist high in the air
C majorC
But the world remained the same
D MajorD
And all the demonstrations
Bm7Bm7 E minorEm
Filtered out through graduation
C majorC
And the times that were a changing
D MajorD
Never changed
G+G
Freedom takes on new meaning
C majorC
When you have a family of five
D MajorD Bm7Bm7 E minorEm
And peace and revolution dissolved in its own solution
C majorC
When you're fighting for your life
D MajorD
Just to survive

It's then you've gotta

When you're feeling too vulnerable to dream
