Biography:
Ellis Paul (born Paul Plissey, January 14, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter and folk musician. Born in Aroostook County, Maine, Paul is a key figure in what has become known as the Boston school of songwriting, a literate, provocative and urbanely romantic folk-pop style that helped ignite the folk revival of the 1990s. His folk-pop music songs have appeared in movies and on television, and are said to bridge the gap between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger.

Am: X02210
F: X33210
G: 320001
Intro: C-C/B-Am-F
C
I read the paper
C/B
I watch the news
Am
It seems there's only pain and sufferin'
C/B
And there ain't much I can do
F
It's so senseless
G
I feel defenseless
C
So small
I could shut my windows
Bolt my doors
But if I don't feel safe enough
To speak my mind anymore
Then what's the use
I've nothing left to lose
And no farther to fall
G
So I'm gonna love
Am
I'm gonna believe
G
I'm still gonna dream
Am
I'm gonna roll up my sleeves
C C/B Am F
Give everything until I've nothing left to give
C C/B F
That's the only way that I know how to live
It was a nightmare
No tongue can tell
How the streets of New York city
Looked just like the gates of Hell
In a flash
The smoke and the ash
Came falling down like rain
But they circled wagons
They gathered round
As they bravely pulled their brothers
And their sisters from the ground
And I know
That I owe them more
Than to be afraid
So I'm gonna love
I'm gonna believe
I'm still gonna dream
I'm gonna roll up my sleeves
Give everything until I've nothing left to give
That's the only way that I know how to live
Why seek vengeance?
What comes of war?
I know freedom has a price
But it doesn't keep score
It's too much to swallow
It's left me hollow
After all this time
I won't tell you
What to believe
Cause I'm too young to be so cynical
And too old to be nave
But if every action
Breeds a reaction
Let this be mine
So I'm gonna love
I'm gonna believe
I'm still gonna dream
I'm gonna roll up my sleeves
Give everything until I've nothing left to give
That's the only way that I know how to live
