[Verse 1]
Cm
On the day the wall came down
     Cm
They threw the locks onto the ground
         Ab                               G
And with glasses high we raised a cry for freedom had arrived
Cm
On the day the wall came down
    Cm
The Ship of Fools had finally run aground
Ab                             G
Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight
[Chorus 1]
F
I dreamed you had left my side
F                         C         F C
No warmth, not even pride remained
F
And even though you needed me
F                                  C                G
It was clear that I could not do a thing for you
[Verse 2]
    Cm
Now life devalues day by day
   Cm
As friends and neighbors turn away
              Ab                             G
And there’s a change that, even with regret, cannot be undone
    Cm
Now frontiers shift like desert sands
      Cm
While nations wash their bloodied hands
   Ab                       G
Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey
[Chorus 2]
F
I woke to the sound of drums
F                                 C            F C
The music played, the morning sun streamed in
F
I turned and I looked at you
F                               C
And all but the bitter residues slipped away...
G
Slipped away
