I cannot promise you that this tab is 100% accurate, but I did this by ear and it sounds
correct. This is a really beautiful song that I identify with as an Irishwoman, and
a shame someone better than me hasn't tabbed it yet. Enjoy, and let me know what you think!
[G]There's a breeze that's blowin' [C]in from the [G]land
[G]Instead of salt air, all we [D]breathe in is [G]sand
[G]Crippled the cloud that once [C]brought us the [G]rain
[G]Good job, now we'll never see [D]our coasts [G]again
[C]But those of us, [C]those of us, us of lesser [G]gods
[G]Won't eat till we're [C]hungry, won't [D]drink till we're [G]parched
[C]But those of us, [C]those of us, who forget where we're [G]from
[G]Create now this [C]Hell where no [D]devil could [G]spawn
[C]Take me back, [C]take me back
[C]To the way life used to [G]be
[G]A whisper's now sayin' what [C]words used to [G]speak
[G]Starve must the child, hungry [D]sex on [G]TV
[G]For no act of contrition will [C]pardon the [G]soul
[G]The damage now glistens, [D]see how it [G]glows
[C]Take me back, [C]take me back
[C]To the way life used to [G]be
[G]Yesterday is better than [C]it is [G]today
[G]And today will be better [D]tomorrow, they [G]say
[G]We don't want what you know but we [C]know what we [G]want
[G]That's "live and let live," we're all [D]different, that [G]counts
[C]But those of us, [C]those of us, us of lesser [G]gods
[G]Won't eat till we're [C]hungry, won't [D]drink till we're [G]parched
[C]But those of us, [C]those of us, who forget where we're [G]from
[G]Create now this [C]Hell where no [D]devil could [G]spawn
[C]Dark is the shallow man, [D]proud without [G]pride
[D]Worn out comes the [G]welcome from a [C]truth that never [G]lies
[D]Weep now for the [G]tear, [D]cold on the [G]face
[D]So come down from your [C]heaven, Lord
Let me [G]show you Hell on [D]earth
[C]Take me back to the way life's never [G]been
