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/G#
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/G#
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/G#
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/G# 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
