F#A rappin' at the chapel door
ASweepin' up the Eenemies floor
F#Do not touch or make a sound
AKeep your eyes Eupon the ground
DI read your countless Avolumes, Dshunned your many Asins
But I Dcannot find salAvation in the Drattlin' of your E+tins
DI wish good to your Achildren, and Dtheir own children Atoo
But your Darmour will not Afit me, though Dfine it's suiting EyouE5 F5

[Chorus]
F#A flag is waved, the bomb is thrown
ASo many names and Edates to know
F#Books upon the books are stacked
ATo get something so sEimple back
DWere talking revolutioAn but spiDrals not the spinsA

DI wish good to your Achildren, and Dtheir own children Atoo
But your Darmour will not Afit me, though Dfine it's suiting EyouE5 F5
