[G][Am][G][Bm][Bbm][Am][G]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Silver shone the rooftops,
[Am]I he[Bm]ard the words 'Y[G]ou will'
[Bbm]And re[Am]alized that in your ey[D]es,
[C]the for[G]ce of love cou[D]ld kill
[G]So go and get your wages,
[Am]get [Bm]what you deser[G]ve
[Bbm]When h[A]ope held[Am] out of its hands tod[G]ay,[D]
[G]you laughed and turned and fled

[Verse 2]
[C][Chorus:]
Release, 'cause I wanted the world,
and [A]all I could get to
Was a gun or a girl
[C]Release, now I've thrown them away
I'm [A]here and I'm hungry
and I [Gm]hope I [Edim]can stay

[Gm][Am][D][C][Em][G][Gm][Daug]
[Gm]loch[G] is overflow[Am]ing, the s[Bm]un has shed its light
[Bbm]And all th[Am]at's left to war[D]m your
breast's [G]the wine we stole tonight
[Gm]Bott[D]le m[G]erchants both [Am]of us,
[Bm]overdosed on [Bbm]Keats, [Am]we smashed them all
And watched them [D]fall like [C]ma [G]gic in the streets

[Verse 4]
[Chor[A]us]

[Verse 5]
Standing in our [Bm]new boots,
[C#m]we've lost the urge to hide[Cm]
[Bm]We left it with the souv[E]enirs
[A]that forced us to decide
[Am]How [Abaug]we'd storm[E] t[A]he palace,
[Bm]meet[C#m] me at the g[Cm]ates?
[Bm]There's plenty bread an[E]d water here for
[A]anyone who waits

[Interlude 2]
[A][D][B]
[D]

[Verse 6]
[Chorus] [B]But
[D]you can't remember where
you squandered your hope
A [B]fistful of dollars and a fistful of dope
With [D]your hands in your hair and
your hair in your face
You'd better sum[B]mon your soul
because we're leaving this place
[D]With [B]a red, [D]red [Bm]flag[B]

[Outro 1]
for a souvenir
