Spandau Ballet
G
Mother doesn't
Em
know where love has
Bm
gone
C
She says it
Em
must be youth that
F
keeps us feeling
C
strong
G
I see it in her
Em
face that's turned to
Bm
ice
C
And when she sm
Em
iles she shows the
C
lines of sacri
D
fice
And now I
C
know what they're
D
saying as our s
G
un be
F#m#5
gins to
Em
fade
And we m
C
ade our love on
Am7
wasteland and
D
through the
G
barricades
Father made my history
He thought for what he thought would set us somehow free
They taught me what to say in school
I learned it off my heart but now that's torn in two
And now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades
F
C
G
Born on different sides of life
We feel the same and feel all of this strife
So come to me when I'm asleep
We'll cross the lines and dance upon the streets
And now I know what they're saying as the drums begin to fade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades
F
Oh t
C
urn around and I'll
G
be there
There's a
F
scar right through my
C
heart but I'll bear it
G
again
Oh I
F
thought we were the human
C
race
But we were
G
just another
F#m#5
borderline
Em
case
And the s
Am7
tars reach down and tell us there's
C
always one
D
escape
G
I don't
F#m#5
know where love has
Em
gone
C
And in this t
Em
roubled land
C
desperation keeps us
D
strong
G
Fridays
Bm
child is full of
C
soul
C
With nothing
Em
left to lose there's
C
everything to
D
go
And now I k
C
now what they're s
D
aying it's a
G
terrible
F#m#7
beat we
Em
made
And we m
C
ade our love on
Am7
wasteland and t
D
hrough the
G
barricades
And now I
C
know what they're
D
saying as our
Em
hearts
D
go to t
C
heir graves
And we
C
made our love on w
