[Verse 1]
G Emadd9 Bm7 Bm7 * Bm7
Mother doesn't know where love has gone,
Cadd9 Em7 Fadd9 C *
She says it must be youth that keeps us feeling strong,
G Emadd9 Bm7 Bm7 * Bm7
I see it in her face that's turned to ice,
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 D
And when she smiles she shows the lines of sacri - fice!

[Chorus 1]
Bm7 D/A C Dadd4
And now I know what they're saying,
G G/F# Em7 Em7/A Em7/B
As our sun be - gins to fade,
Cadd9 Am7 D D4 D G
And we made our love on wasteland, and through the bar - ri - cades!

[Verse 2]
G Emadd9 Bm7 Bm7 * Bm7
Father made my histor - y,
Cadd9 Em7 Fadd9 C *
He fought for what he thought...would set us, somehow, ...free,
G Emadd9 Bm7 Bm7 * Bm7
He taught me what to say in ...school,
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 D
I learnt it off by heart, but now that's torn in two!

[Chorus 2]
Bm7 D/A C Dadd4
And now I know what they're saying,
G G/F# Em7 Em7/A Em7/B
In the music of the pa - rade,
Cadd9 Am7 D
And we made our love on wasteland, and through..
D4 D F Fadd9 F Fadd9 F C Cadd9 C Cadd9 C
...the bar - ri -cades-----!

[Verse 3]
G Emadd9 Bm7 Bm7 * Bm7
Born on different sides of life,
Cadd9 Em7 Fadd9
We fear the same, and feel all of this ...strife,
G Emadd9 Bm7 Bm7 * Bm7
So come to me---- when I'm a-----sleep, (Asleep!)
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 D
We'll cross the lines, and dance upon the--- streets!

[Chorus 3]
Bm7 D/A C Dadd4
And now I know what they're saying,
G G/F# Em7 Em7/A Em7/B
As the drums be - gin to fade,
Cadd9 Am7 D D4 D G
And we made our love on wasteland, and through the bar - ri - cades!

[Verse 4]
F C G Cadd9 G
Oh, turn around, and I'll be there,
F C
Well, there's a scar right through my heart,
G Cadd9 G
But I'll bare--- it again,
F C
Oh, I thought we were the human race,
G G/F# Em7 Em7/A Em7/B
But we were just another borderline ...case,
Cadd9
And the stars reach down, and tell us...
D4 D
...That there's always one es - cape------!

[Verse 5]
G G/F# Em7 Em7/A Em7/B
Oh-----, I don't know where love has gone,
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 D
And in this troubled land ...despe - ration keeps us strong,
G G/F# Em7 Em7/A Em7/B
Oh, Friday's child is full of soul,
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 D D4
With nothing left to lose, there's everything to ...go!

[Chorus 4]
Bm7 D/A C Dadd4
And now I know what they're saying,
G G/F# Em7 Em7/A Em7/B
It's a terrible beauty we've made,
Cadd9 Am7 D D4 D G
So we make our love on wasteland, and through the bar - ri - cades!

[Chorus 5]
Bm7 D/A C Dadd4
And now I know what they're saying,
G G/F# Em7/B
As our hearts go to their---- graves,
Cadd9 Am7 Cadd9
And we made our love on waste-----land,
D
Woh, and through----- ...
F Fadd9 F Fadd9 F C Cadd9 C Cadd9 C
...the barri -cades-----!
