Вступление
[Intro]
D Em G
D Em G
[Verse 1]
D
It was a time I'll always remember
Em G
I could never forget
D
How reality came down around us
Em G
Like some Western movie set
D
And when the dust all settled
Em D
The sun shone so bright
G D
And a great calm took over us
Em D
Like it was all gonna be alright
A Asus4 A7 A
That's how it felt to be alive
D Em G
After the revolution
[Verse 2]
D
From Groton to Tacoma
Em G
On many a factory floor
D
The workers talked of solidarity
Em G
And refused to build weapons of war
D
No more will we make missiles
Em D
We're gonna do something different
G D
And for the first time
Em D
Their children were proud of their parents
A Asus4 A7 A
And somewhere in Gaza a little boy smiled and cried
D Em G
After the revolution
[Riff]
D Em G
[Verse 3]
D
Prison doors swung open
Em G
Mothers hugged their sons
D
The Liberty Bell was ringing
Em G
When the cops put down their guns
D
A million innocent people
Em D
Lit up in the springtime air
G D
And Mumia and Leonard and Sarah Jane Olson
Em D
Took a walk in Tompkins Square
A Asus4 A7 A
And they talked about what they'd do now
D Em G
After the revolution
[Verse 4]
D
Debts were all forgiven
Em G
In all the neo-colonies
D
Soldiers left their bases
Em G
Went back to their families
D
A non-aggression treaty
Em D
Was signed with every sovereign state
G D
All the terrorist groups disbanded
Em D
With no empire left to hate
A Asus4 A7 A
And they all started planting olive trees
D Em G
After the revolution
[Riff]
D Em G
[Verse 5]
D
George Bush and Henry Kissinger
Em G
Were sent off to the World Court
D
Their plans for global domination
Em G
Were pre-emptively cut short
D
Their weapons of mass destruction
Em D
Were inspected and destroyed
G D
Battleships dismantled
Em D
Never again to be deployed
A Asus4 A7 A
And the world breathed a sigh of relief
D Em G
After the revolution
[Verse 6]
D
Solar panels were on the rooftops
Em G
Trains upon the tracks
D
Organic food was in the markets
Em G
No GMO's upon the racks
D
And all the billionaires
Em D
Had to learn how to share
G D
Bill Gates was told to quit his whining
Em D
When he said it wasn't fair
A Asus4 A7 A
And his mansion became a collective farm
D Em G
After the revolution
[Riff]
D Em G
[Verse 7]
D
And all the political poets
Em G
Couldn't think of what to say
D
So they all decided
Em G
To live life for today
D
I spent a few years catching up
Em D
With all my friends and lovers
G D
Sleeping til eleven
Em D
Home beneath the covers
A Asus4 A7 A
And I learned how to play the accordion
D Em G
After the revolution
[Riff]
D Em G
D Em G
D Em G
[Outro]
