 C                     F    C
Sing us a song of the century
        C
That's louder than bombs
      G
And Eternity
    C                  F     C
The era of static and contraband
        C                  G
That's leading us to the promised land
 F          C    F        C
Tell us a story by candlelight
 F        C       F          G
Waging a war and losing the fight

          C                       F   C
They're playing the song of the century
    C                      G
Of panic and promise and prosperity
 F          C      F           C
Tell me a story into that goodnight
 F         G        C
Sing us a song for me
