[Intro 1]
[Am][D]
[Am][G][Am][G]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
That was
my cup [G]that you [Am]smashed
My yesterday drained away
Admit that you [G]wouldn't [Am]like
To live inside me [G]today[Am]

[Verse 2]
Great expecta[G]tions we [Am]had
What hopes burned in our eyes
[C]But your sun illumin[Am]ates
The dead pan,
where [G]our [Am]dream [G]fries
[Am]

[Verse 3]
The rosy cloud[G]s rush a[Am]way
Replaced with a growing rage
The hand of promise [G]takes the pen
[Am]And writes nothing,
on every [G]page[Am]

[Verse 4]
Why do they all [G]stare at [Am]me
As if I came from the moon
I'll [C]sing to myself 'it'll be
[G]alr[Am]ight'
A foolish song, [G]without [Am]a tune
[G][Am]

[Verse 5]
I [Bb]see no land
[Dm]I see [Am]no e[Dm]nd[Am]
There's no way out or [Dm]in[Bb]
Frustration fans
[Dm]The burning [Am]band[Dm]s[Am]
I want my [A]home again
[Dm]

[Verse 6]
[Am]
You best hang on [G]to your [Am]cash
He let me help with the sack
Our matchmaking went [G]badly [Am]wrong
I'd ask for my money [G]back

[Verse 7]
[Am]You'll compromise me t[G]o de[Am]ath
I'll bow and bleat like a sheep
So [C]narrow minded is [G]the bed
[Am]We lay in, but never[G] sleep[Am]

[Verse 8]
Warm [C]welcome for the foreigners
An arsonists bouquet of [G]flames
I know it's not a love match
[Am]But please t[F]ry to play a
friendly [Am]game

[Verse 9]
[C]Come let's gather up the stars
We'll share the gems,
we'll share [G]the task
I'd let you drink from all [Am]my dreams
[F]And so much more,
[Esus4]if you'd just ask[Em][Am]

[Interlude 1]
[Am]

[Verse 10]
He is not a [G]beast of [Am]burden
Animal to work your farm
Don't hang him up,
to bleed [G]him [Am]dry
Don't snap his back
or twist his [G]arm[Am]

[Verse 11]
You know that I'm your [Am]mirror self
And just like you I cry, I break
So [C]if hell's kitchen we must
[G]wor[Am]k
Together, is [G]how [Am]we'll bake

[Verse 12]
[Bb]I see no land
[Dm]I see [Am]no end
[Dm]Ther[Am]e's no way
out [A]or [Dm]in[Bb]
Frustration fans
[Dm]The burning [Am]bands
I feel [A]bought and used, [Dm]then binned

[Verse 13]
I ask the way [Bb]out from the faces
Dis[Dm]guised by masks of ice
But no [Am]one,
no [A]one lends [Dm]a hand[Am][Dm]
I need [Bb]respect to keep me living
not [Dm]a politician's [Am]porridg[Dm]e
I feel [Am]alone and [A]robbed
who stole my land?
[Dm][Am][Dm]

[Verse 14]
[Am]
That was my cup [G]that you [Am]smashed
My yesterday drained away
[C]Give me a crumb of your [G]tomor[Am]row,
give me a home
[G]Give [Am]today, give me a home where [G]I can lay
