G              Em                  Bm
Mother doesn't know where love has gone
C           Em                 F                C
She says it must be youth that keeps us feeling strong
G               Em                    Bm
I see it in her face that's turned to ice
C            Em                   F             D
and when she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice
          C                 D             G             Em
and now I know what they're saying as our sun begins to fade
       C                Am       C        D                G
And we made our love on waste ...land and through the barricades

G      Em           Bm
Father made my history
C             Em                    F              C
He fought for what he thought would set us somehow free
G            Em             Bm
He taught me what to say in school
C            Em               F                  D
I learned it off by heart but now that's torn in two
          C                 D             G              Em
and now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade               
       C                Am       C        D                G
And we made our love on waste ...land and through the barricades

G       Em                 Bm
Born on different sides of life
C  Em                F                C
We feel the same and feel all of this strife
G          Em           Bm
So come to me when I'm asleep
C     Em                  C              D
We'll cross the lines and dance upon the streets
          C                 D             G              Em
and now I know what they're saying as the drums begin to fade
       C                Am       C        D                G
And we made our love on waste ...land and through the barricades

F   C                    G
Oh, turn around and I'll be there
          F                     C                      G
There's a scar right through my heart but I'll bear it again
     F                         C        
Oh I thought we were the human race
            G                       Em
but we were just another borderline case
        C                                    Am           D
and the stars reach down and tell us there's always one escape

      G       D                   Em
Ohhh, I don't know where love has gone
C           Em                 C               D
and in this troubled land desperation keeps us strong
G        Em               Bm
Friday's child is full of soul
C            Em                   C             D
With nothing left to lose there's everything to go
          C                 D              G                     Em
and now I know what they're saying, it's a terrible beauty we've made
      C                Am        C        D                G
so we make our love on waste ... land and through the barricades
          C                 D              Em                 Em
and now I know what they're saying, as our hearts go to their graves        
    C               Am        C           D                    G
We made our love on waste ... land oh and through ... the barricades
