G
[Chorus]
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Gdrowning in the stormy Dsea
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Ghanging in a nowhere Dtree
DHave you got a place for Ame
[Verse 1]
AmMen are tied in chains of silence
FI look on violence, up, down, Gleft and right
GIs there no Dhope of light
AmThe peaceful hand that once caressed me
FHurts like the rest, because it's Gturned to stone
GTalons of Dsteel have grown
[Chorus]
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Gdrowning in the stormy Dsea
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Ghanging in a nowhere Dtree
DHave you got a place for Ame
[Bridge]
AmYeah, F  G  D  
Doh help Amme, F   GyDeah
[Chorus]
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Gdrowning in the stormy Dsea
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Ghanging in a nowhere Dtree
DHave you got a place for Ame
[Verse 1]
AmSee the moon, it's getting nearer
FBut no more clearer than the Gearth below
GWhat do we Dreally know
AmI feel the stab of pain returning
FDespair is burning in my Gheart again
GWhy don't they Dsee the end, ooooh
[Chorus]
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Gdrowning in the stormy Dsea
AYeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Ghanging in a nowhere Dtree
DHave you got a place for Ame
[Chorus]
AThrow down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Gdrowning in the stormy Dsea
AYeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy
AWho's Ghanging in a nowhere Dtree
DHave you got a place for Ame
