SONG: CONDEMNATION -- Songs of Faith and Devotion

INTRO:  C // /F C

[1]
      C
Condemnation
E   E7
Tried
F
Here on the stand
With the book in my hand
    G
And truth on my side

    C
Accusations
E  E7
Lies
F
Hand me my sentence
I'll show no repentance
     G
I'll suffer with pride

[2]

F
If for honesty
Am             E
You want apologies
  C
I don't sympathize
F          
If for kindness
    Am                E
You substitute blindness
       C           F           C //  F C
Please open your eyes

[1]
Condemnation
Why
Because my duty
Was always to beauty
And that was my crime

[1]
Feel elation
High
To know I can trust this
Fix of injustice
Time after time

[2]
If you see purity
As immaturity
Well it's no surprise
If for kindness
You substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
