[Intro] Am G F
C G
Am F G
The rains move eastward in waves of succession
Am F Em
Drawing lines of grey across the sky
Am F G
With history just as close as a hand on the shoulder
Am F Em
In hunger and impatience we cry
Am F G
The battle against corruption rages in each corner
Am F Em
There must be something better, something pure
Am F G
And the call it is answered from the caves to the cities
Am F Em
Come the dealers of Salvation on Earth
[Solo] Am F G C
Am F G
Am F G C
Am F G
Am F G
We've seen the restless children at the head of the columns
Am F Em
Come to purify the future with the arrogance of youth
Am F G
Nothing is as cruel as the righteousness of innocents
Am F Em
With automatic weapons and a gospel of the truth
E D C B
Revolution for ever, succession of the seasons
Am G F E
Within the blood of Nature, all raised to rot and die
F E Am F G C
This purity, purity is a lie
[Solo] Am F G
Am F G C
Am F G
Am F G
Now immaculate conception in sterilised laboratories
Am F Em
How the vanity goes on
Am F G
Or in the message of the preacher with his morals and obsessions
Am F Em
The wars that we wage upon ourselves
G F
Purity is a virtue, purity is an angel
Am Em
Purity is for madmen to make fools of us all
Am F G
So forgive yourself my friend, all this will soon be over
Am F Em
What happened here tonight is nothing at all
E D C B
Revolution for ever, succession of the seasons
Am G F E
Within the blood of Nature, all raised to rot and die
F E Am F G C
This purity, purity is a lie
[Solo] Am F G
Am F G C

Am F G
I will always see Brendan at that broken down piano
Am F Em
His fingers thick and red, shaking on the keys
Am F G
Battered by the years of alcohol and working
Am F Em
Still playing with the faith that never leaves
Am F G
So sit us down, buy us a drink, tell us a good story
Am F Em
Sing us a song we know to be true
Am F G
I don't give a damn that I never will be worthy
Am F Em Am F G C
Fear is the only enemy that I still know
[Solo] Am F G
