Through the Barricades Spandau Ballet
Through The Barricades - Spandau Ballett
TAB Transcription by Luis Ferreira
Lyrics were posted by someone (?) else, but they were corrected by me.
Well, at least I changed them... :)
The chords to the strummed part were left unchanged, everything else was
replaced by TAB. (Last time I forgot to mention the chords were not my own)
Thanks to Matthias Rohe ( rohe@uni-paderborn.de ) for his comments and
suggestions!

Mother doesn't know where love has gone
She says it must be youth that keeps this feeling strong
I see it in her face that's turned to ice
And when she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice
And now I know what they're saying as our sun begins to fade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades
Mother.. ...gone...

Father made my history
He fought for what he thought would set us somehow free
They taught me what to say in school
I learned it half by heart but now that's torn in two
And now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades

Born on different sides of life
We fear the same and feel all of this strife
So come to me when I'm asleep ( sleep )
We'll cross the lines and dance upon the streets
And now I know what they're saying as the drums begin to fade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades
Born... ...life

[F]Oh t[C]urn around and I'll [G]be there
There's a [F]scar right through my [C]heart but I'll bear it [G]again
Oh I [F]thought we were the human [C]race
But we were [G]just another [F#m#5]borderline [Em]case
And the s[Am7]tars reach down and tell us there's [C]always one [D]escape
Oh [G]I don't [F#m#5]know where love has [Em]gone
[C]And in this t[Em]roubled land [C]desperation keeps us [D]strong
A [G]friday's [Bm]child is through the [C]soul
[C]With nothing [Em]left to lose there's [C]everything to[D] go
And now I k[C]now what they're s[D]aying it's a [G]terrible[F#m#7] beauty we've [Em]made
So we m[C]ake our love on [Am7]wasteland and t[D]hrough the [G]barricades
And now I [C]know what they're [D]saying as our [Em]hearts [D]go to t[C]heir graves
And we [C]made our love on w[Am7]astel[C]and and t[D]hrough
The barricades

Luis Ferreira You see a city in the desert lies
The vanity of an ancient king

Where the wind howls and the vultures sing
