BJH - Sideshow
Track #1, Victims of Circumstance, 1984
[G][C][G][C]
I have Gseen the streets and alleyways
Of a Cmillion faceless towns
Am7The camera comes, the camera goes
Am7Filming our blues for the late night news
We [G]gather round [C][G]
Never Gsearching for our innocence
Our Cfaith, our truth, our love
Am7They're only there when things go wrong
Am7Filming our blues for the late night news
We [G]gather round [C][G]
C5Show us peace and underG5standing [B5,A5,G5]
[C5] Brother love for fellow [G5]man [B5,A5,G5]
C5Cure us, we are sick from D5violence
In your Amsideshow of Glife C  
ImGpartiality is like
A Ccoin they have to spend
Am7The currency of the chosen few
Am7They place their bets
Switch on your sets
There's Gworld disasters by the minute
They Ctell us on the hour
And Am7when we think we've paid our dues
Am7They've filmed our blues for the late night news
We [G]gather round [C] [G]
C5Show us peace and underG5standing [B5,A5,G5]
[C5] Brother love for fellow [G5]man [B5,A5,G5]
C5Cure us, we are sick from D5violence
In your Amsideshow of Glife c  
Sideshow of Glife C  
When it's Glate at night and you're all alone
With the one you Clove
Turn on the late night news and cry
GTears for all the lost and lonely people
CInnocents in prime time
G(Tragedies) of our Clife
G(Tragedies) of our Clife
G(Tragedies) of our Clife
