VERSE 1
[G] Mother doesn't [Emadd9]know where love has gone,[Bm7]
[Cadd9] She says it mu[Em]st be youth that [Fadd9]keeps us feeling[C] strong
[G] I see it in her [Emadd9]face thats turned to i[Bm7]ce,
[Cadd9] and when she s[Em]miles she shows the [C]lines of sacri[D]fice,
CHORUS
and I [C]know, what they're [Dsus2]saying, as our [G]sun b[Dadd9/F#]egins to f[Em]ade,
and we [C]made our love on [Am7]wasteland,
and [D]through the barri[G]cades,
VERSE 2
[G] Father [Emadd9]made my histo[Bm7]ry,
[Cadd9] he fought for wha[Em]t he thought, would [Fadd9]set us somehow[C] free,

[Cadd9] I learned it o[Em]ff by heart and [C]now thats torn in [D]two,
CHORUS
and now I [C]know what they're [Dsus2]sayin' in the [G]music [Dadd9/F#]of the par[Em]ade,

VERSE 3
[G] Born on [Emadd9]different sides of li[Bm7]fe,
[Cadd9] we f[Em]eel the same and [Fadd9]feel all of this strife,
[G] so come to [Emadd9]me when I'm a[Bm7]sleep,
[Cadd9] we'll cr[Em]oss the lines and d[C]ance upon the st[D]reets,
CHORUS
now I [C]know what they're [Dsus2]saying, when the [G]drums [Dadd9/F#]begin to f[Em]ade,
we [C]made our love on [Am7]wasteland, and [D]through the barri[G]cades,
MIDDLE 8
[F] Oh [C]turn around and I'll be t[G]here,
theres a [F]scar through my he[C]art but I'll be[G]ar it again,
well I [F]thought we were the human race[C],
but were [G]just another borderline [Em]case,
and the s[C]tars reach down and tell us, theres [D]always one escape, oooh
VERSE 4
[G]oh, I dont k[Dadd9/F#]now where love has g[Em]one,
[C] and in this t[Em]roubled land, despe[C]ration keeps us str[D]ong,
[G] Fridays child is full of [Em]soul,
[C] with nothing l[Em]eft to lose, theres [C]everything to [D]go,
CHORUS
And now I [C]know what they're s[D]aying, its a t[G]errible [Dadd9/F#]beauty weve [Em]made,
so we [C]make our love on [Am7]wasteland, and [D]through the barri[G]cades,
now I [C]know what they're s[D]aying, as [Em]hearts go [D]on to th[C]ey're graves,
we made our love on [Am7]wastel[C]and, and t[D]hrough,
