Artist: Arcade Fire
Song: Lenin
Album: Dark was the Night
       D
Intro: 
D
When Lenin was little
All the birds in the forest were singing, "Man, this is it!"
But now that he's older
                                                               C#
All the sailors in the heaven are screaming, "Abandon ship!"
Chorus:
                   F#
I know it can't be right
                   B
I know it can't be right
                 F#
But I just smile instead
                    G
Of repeating what I said
      D
In my head
D
When Lenin was little
Dressed up like a vampire on 'All Hallow's Eve'
All the saints up in heaven
                                                        C#
Were looking down at the leaves falling from the trees
Chorus:
                   F#
I know it can't be right
                   B
I know it can't be right
                 F#
But I just smile instead
                    G
Of repeating what I said
                     D                       G
Daddy, daddy, please save the world from the government
                     D                        G
Daddy, daddy, please save my soul from my own judgement
                     D                                  G
Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart that isn't made of cement
                             D     C#
Because the money's all been spent
F# B F# B
F# B F# G
                     D                       G
Daddy, daddy, please save the world from the government
                     D                        G
Daddy, daddy, please save my soul from my own judgement
                     D                                  G
Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart that isn't made of cement
                             D
Because the money's all been spent
                             G
Because the money's all been spent
                             D
Because the money's all been spent
