The Walking Wounded

Intro 

verse 1 
              C#m 
We're in the church house kneeling down 
             Asus2 
We're in the subways underground 
              B 
We're in the bars and on the street 
            C#m 
We drive a truck we walk a beat 
              C#m 
We're in the mills and factories 
             Asus2 
We make the steel we cut the trees 
            B 
A thousand-yard stare, eyes of glass 
             C#m 
But we will see you when you pass 

  C#m  Asus2  B  C#m 

             C#m 
We lost our homes, we lost our dreams 
         Asus2 
All our goals have turned into schemes 
             B 
We hurt each other and ourselves 
          C#m 
So after long, traumatic spells 


[Refrão]
Chorus 
           C#m 
We are the walking 
            A 
We are the walking 
            B               C#m 
We are the walking wounded 

verse 2 
             C#m 
We cried out from the deepest pit 
              A 
But rise back up each time we're hit 
              B 
We fell from power and from grace 
           C#m 
But resurrection's in our face 
                 C#m 
We're just like little girls and boys 
     A 
We play with grown up toys 
           B 
We never thought of sink or swim 
            C#m 
My brother hurts me so I hurt him 


[Refrão]
Chorus 
            C#m 
We are the walking 
            A 
We are the walking 
            B               C#m 
We are the walking wounded 

 C#m  A  B  C#m 

verse 3 
        C#m 
Like a circle, round and round 
      Asus2 
We go up so we come down 
            B 
We don't explain or apologize 
             C#m 
We pull the veil across our eyes 
   C#m 
We see through your fake refrain 
             Asus2 
But we won't let you see our pain 
             B 
You may not know us but you'll see 
           C#m 
There are more than you'd believe 


[Refrão]
Chorus 
            C#m 
We are the walking 
            A 
We are the walking 
            B 
We are the walking 
            C#m 
We are the walking 

            C#m 
We are the walking 
             A 
We are the walking 
             B                C#m 
We are the walking wounded
