The Sparrows And The Nightingales

A  Em  G  Em
A  E   G  Em
Am  G  Em
Am  G  Em


[Verse 1]
A   Em                 G
How long have you been free
         Em
In this world of hate and greed?
A         Em            G
Is it black? Or is it white?
            Em
Let's find another compromise

A       Em                 G
And our future's standing still
              Em
We're dancing in the spotlight
A              E              G
Where is the leader who leads me?
            Em
I'm still waiting


[Chorus]
         Am      Em               G
Leaving home and God is on your side
           Em                A
Dividing sparrows from the nightingales
Em                G
Watching all the time
         Em             Am            G   Em
Dividing water from the burning fire  - inside

Am G Em


[Verse 2]
F#m     E                C#m
Leave a light on in the night for me
      Am    Em
That, I can find you
F#m       E                  C#m
Remember when we both where young
             Am     Em
And reckless and so curious

F#m         E                C#m
Now you're hiding from your child
                    Am  Em
A new day's dawning
F#m       C#            E
Remember that you felt alive
       C#
Sometimes


[Chorus]
A   Em              G
And God is on your side
         Em            A
Dividing cruelty from tenderness
Em                G
Watching all the time
          Em           Am
Dividing fiction from reality

G  Em
Am  G  Em


[Verse 3]
A        Em              G
Move in circles walk on lines
          Em        A
No human being in sight
           Em
Calm the winds
               G
And calm the seas
         Em               A
Lets try another kind of peace

                Em          G
Who fights this Holy civil war?
          Em       A
A million men in uniform
            E               G
Wo ist der Führer der mich führt?
          Em
Ich warte immer noch


[Chorus]
A   Em              G
And God is on your side
           Em               A
Dividing presence from the history
Em                G
Watching all the time
          Em                 Am
Dividing deaf men from the listening ones

G Em
Am G Em

A   Em              G
And God is on your side
            Em                A
Dividing soldiers from the fisherman
 Em               G
Watching all the time
            E                Am
Dividing warships from the ferryboats
