Tell [Em]of the state of the n[G]ations,
[D]that we find today
[Em]And we play

In the [Bm]front rooms of old towns
far from the city
[Em]With beat up gui[G]tars and
[D]hearts full [Em]of pity
The [Bm]people gather round singing
songs from everywhere
[Em]Torn from the [G]na tion, [D]left without a [Em]care

To every [G]day, [D]every [C]day

were [G]young will always stay
