A Amaj7
these are the days of the open hand
A7
they will not be the last – look around now
Dm6 Dm6/F G A
these are the days of the beggars and the choosers
Amaj7
this is the year of the hungry man
A7
whose place is in the past – hand in hand
Dm6 Dm6/F G Bm
with ignorance and le – gitimate ex – cuses
F#7/A#
the rich declare themselves poor
D/A
and most of us are not sure
E/A#
if we have too much – but we’ll take our chance
E F# Bm
’cause god’s stopped keeping score
F#7/A#
i guess somewhere along the way
D/A
he must have let us all out to play
E/A#
turned his back and all god’s children
E Esus4/F# A
crept out the back door
Amaj7
and it’s hard to love , there’s so much to hate
A7
hanging on to hope
Dm6 Dm6/F G A
when there is no hope to speak of
Amaj7 A7
and the wounded skies A – bove say it’s much , much too late
Dm6 Dm6/F G A
well maybe we should all be praying for time
Amaj7 A7 Dm6 Dm6/F G A
toehoehoe hohoho hoo hoo – oo – hoo hoho yeah

Amaj7 – A7 – Dm6 – Dm6/F – G –

A Amaj7
these are the days of the empty hand
A7
oh you hold on to what you can – and charity
Dm6 Dm6/F G
is A coat you wear twice A year
A Amaj7
this is the year of the guilty man
A7
your television takes A stand – and you find
Dm6 Dm6/F G Bm
that what was over there is over here
F#7/A#
so you scream from behind your door
D/A
say what’s mine is mine and not yours
E/A#
i may have too much but i’ll take my chances
E F# Bm
’cause god’s stopped keeping score
F#7/A#
and you cling to the things they sold you
D/A
did you cover your eyes when they told you

that he can’t come back
E/A# E Esus4/F# A
’cause he has no children to come back for

Amaj7
and it’s hard to love , there’s so much to hate
A7
hanging on to hope
Dm6 Dm6/F A
when there is no G hope to speak of
Amaj7 A7
and the wounded skies A – bove say it’s much too late
Dm6 Dm6/F G A
so maybe we should all be praying for time
Amaj7 A7 Dm6 Dm6/F G A
toehoehoe – hoo – oo – hoo hoho yeah
