revolution
words & music by chris de burgh
Am G Am
wake up boys there’s a light at the window ,
C G Am
i can hear someone knocking on the door ,
Am
there are voices in the street ,
D
and the sound of running feet ,
F G Am
and they whisper the word : “revolution”
there are men coming down from the valleys ,
there are tall ships lying off the coast ,
and they carry the light ,
in the dark of the night ,
like a whisper in the wind – revolution!
Am G Am
bring my gun and a handful of silver ,
C G Am
by the sea we will gather for the fight ,
Am
it’s been so many years ,
D
so many tears ,
F G
we have lost once before ,
F G7
now we settle to the score ,
F G Am
when our cannons will roar – revolution!
