B
Today I want to slip back to the dream I had
             A
When you had urged me to look out
Upon the window of my life.

Today the choices have all clashed upon my head
Is it wrong to leave your charges
And go charging round the bend?

Chorus:
 B                   A               E
Mansions, there are mansions in the sun
                     B
There's no hiding defying the night
 A                 E        B
Come out into the light, today

Today the choices have all clashed upon my head
Is it wrong to leave your charges
And go charging round the bend?

Chorus

Today my thoughts were like a tent put up in heaven
Build a shelter for your mind
Invite a stranger to come in and taste the wine

Chorus

Today they want to tear my body from my mind
The rust will show
I am an iron bridge that's giving into time

Today the wind blows west the heather and the broom
Becalms the spirit of the fighting man
And lays him where his wild spirit belongs

 B               A
Victims will be justified
     E
The lame will be leaping
     B
This army's for peace
     A             E        B
Come out into the light, today
 B               A
Victims will be justified
     E
The lame will be leaping
     B
This army's for peace
      A            E        B
Come out into the light, today
