Broken Circles chords by Levellers

Chords with lyrics

A minorAm
Fired forty rounds in the centre of town
  G+G
He thought to bring the world around
A minorAm
Sleepless nights with God and Christ
  C majorC   G+G
The New Messiah
A minorAm
Burn the world to change the days
G+G
Can be done in better ways
    A minorAm
But to make news and front page
    C majorC     G+G
You've gotta aim higher

          A minorAm
They didn't build Jerusalem
   G+G        A minorAm
They didn't find the land
  G+G      A minorAm
For reasons of security
   G+G    C majorC    A minorAm
They couldn't find the plans

  G+G          A minorAm
And we're left standing watching from below
G+G        C majorC   G+G
No new songs and no new heroes
G+G             A minorAm
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
G+G            C majorC    G+G
Waiting for the day the circle's broken

A minorAm G+G A minorAm C majorC G+G

A minorAm
Took the mic to save day
  G+G
The rock star's going to have his say
 A minorAm             C majorC   G+G
interpret this in any way as if it matters
  A minorAm
Cos nothing's black and nothing's white
G+G
Nothing appears to be quite right
A minorAm
It'll be this way until the day
  C majorC    G+G
The circle's shattered

          A minorAm
I heard an old song yesterday
 G+G       A minorAm
About a better world
       G+G
You know the story
       A minorAm
Well, They're all the same
  G+G  C majorC    A minorAm
The boy gets the girl

  G+G          A minorAm
And we're left standing watching from below
G+G        C majorC   G+G
No new songs and no new heroes
G+G             A minorAm
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
G+G            C majorC    G+G
Waiting for the day the circle's broken

A minorAm G+G A minorAm C majorC G+G

     A minorAm
From the tips of your fingers

The rest is numb
   G+G
You begin to feel the warmth of the sun
   A minorAm
It's taken away been taking away
C majorC    G+G
All you once knew
A minorAm
Taking it back takes all you've got
  G+G
No time to sit and watch it rot
 A minorAm
Believe it's yours and not the lies
  C majorC    G+G
Or all hell to you

          A minorAm
They didn't build Jerusalem
   G+G        A minorAm
They didn't find the land
  G+G      A minorAm
For reasons of security
   G+G    C majorC    A minorAm
They couldn't find the plans

  G+G          A minorAm
And we're left standing watching from below
G+G        C majorC   G+G
No new songs and no new heroes
G+G             A minorAm
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
G+G            C majorC    G+G   Am...
