Wilful Missing - Cry for the City

Capo V


C
I find it hard to change
Am
Beyond routine
C
With its iron back
Am
And its cheap caffeine

G
But we go too far
G
Down this road we?ve turned

        Am7     C
We will cry for the city
        Am7         C
We will beg for its crime
        Am7         C
We will see what we?re missing
        Am              C
We will beg and we will cry


C
I?ve struggled hard to be
Am
What my Daddy wants
C
What my Sister feels
Am
What my Girlfriend needs

G
But we go too far
G
Down this road we?ve turned

        Am7     C
We will cry for the city
        Am7          C
We will reap what we sow
        Am7                 C
We will find we?ve sowed so little
            Am               C
But we will reap and we will sow


C
I?m haunted by a dream
Am
A future scene
C
With an absent heart
Am
And an open seam

C
I?ve got no heart left to break
Am
It?s my saving grace
C
My road to ruin
Am
My oldest friend

G
But we go too far
G
Down this road we?ve turned

        Am7     C
We will cry for the city
        Am7         C
We will read of its past
        F       C
We will fail to listen
        Am             C
We will read and we?ll ignore
        F       C
We will cry for the city
        F              C
We will search for its hope
        F
And from the concrete
    C                  F
Revolution springs its head
G           C
Towards the sun
