A5 - A5 - A5 - D5 - D5       G5          A5         
                             hooho    hohoho     yeah, mmm
A5                         A5      D5 - D5 - G5           
      mmm tuutuutuu hohoho -     hoo 
 
A5                                 A5                                    
   These are the days of the open         hand
                      A5                                              
They will not be the     last - Look around now
       D5                     D5           G5         A5                         
These      are the days of the        beggars    and the    choosers
                               A5                                    
This is the year of the hungry        man
                       A5                                             
Whose place is in the    past - Hand in hand 
     D5                      D5           G5        B5                            
with      ignorance And le -        gitimate     ex -     cuses
                            F#5                                       
The rich declare themselves         poor
                        D5                                            
And most of us are not       sure
                                 E5                                   
If we have too much - But we'll        take our chance
       E5                F#5          B5                                      
'Cause   God's stopped      keeping     score
                            F#5                                       
I guess somewhere along the         way
                               D5                                    
He must have let us all out to       play
                    E5                                               
Turned his back and        all God's children
E5         E5          A5                                                     
   Crept           out the    back door
                      A5                                             
And it's hard to love,       there's so much to hate
A5                                                                   
   Hanging on to hope
D5              D5        G5          A5                                          
     When there        is no    hope to    speak of
                          A5                               A5             
And the wounded skies a -       bove say it's much, much too     late
      D5                       D5      G5             A5                         
Well       maybe we should all         be    praying for    time
A5                   A5     D5          D5       G5        A5                             
       toehoehoe hohoho    hoo     hoo-oo -        hoo     hoho     yeah

A5 - A5 - D5 - D5 - G5 -

A5                                   A5                                   
   These are the days of the empty        hand
                            A5                                        
Oh you hold on to what you     can - And charity 
     D5                D5          G5                                        
is a      coat you wear        twice a     year
A5                                 A5                                    
   This is the year of the guilty        man
                         A5                                           
Your television takes a     stand - And you find 
     D5                      D5      G5        B5                                 
that      what was over there        is     over     here
                                F#5                                    
So you scream from behind your         door
                                 D5                                   
Say what's mine is mine and not       yours
                              E5                                      
I may have too much but I'll        take my chances
       E5                F#5          B5                                      
'Cause    God's stopped     keeping     score
                                 F#5                                  
And you cling to the things they         sold you
                                  D5                                 
Did you cover your eyes when they       told you
                                                                  
That he can't come back
           E5                  E5      E5        A5                               
'Cause he        has no children    to           come      back for

                       A5                                            
And it's hard to love,        there's so much to hate
A5                                                                   
   Hanging on to hope
D5             D5                    A5                                      
    When there         is no G  hope to    speak of
                           A5                        A5                  
And the wounded skies a -        bove say it's much too      late
   D5                       D5      G5              A5                            
So      maybe we should all         be    praying for     time
A5              A5          D5       D5        G5      A5                                
       toehoehoe -     hoo-oo -      hoo        hoho    yeah
