Am
Fired forty rounds in the centre of town
G
He thought to bring the world around
Am
Sleepless nights with God and Christ
CG
The New Messiah
Am
Burn the world to change the days
G
Can be done in better ways
Am
But to make news and front page
CG
You've gotta aim higher
Am
They didn't build Jerusalem
GAm
They didn't find the land
GAm
For reasons of security
GCAm
They couldn't find the plans
GAm
And we're left standing watching from below
GCG
No new songs and no new heroes
GAm
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
GCG
Waiting for the day the circle's broken
AGACGAm
Took the mic to save day
G
The rock star's going to have his say
AmCG
interpret this in any way as if it matters
Am
Cos nothing's black and nothing's white
G
Nothing appears to be quite right
Am
It'll be this way until the day
CG
The circle's shattered

Am
I heard an old song yesterday
GAm
About a better world
G
You know the story
Am
Well, They're all the same
GCAm
The boy gets the girl
GAm
And we're left standing watching from below
GCG
No new songs and no new heroes
GAm
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
GCG
Waiting for the day the circle's broken
AGACGAm
From the tips of your fingers
The rest is numb
G
You begin to feel the warmth of the sun
Am
It's taken away been taking away
CG
All you once knew
Am
Taking it back takes all you've got
G
No time to sit and watch it rot
Am
Believe it's yours and not the lies
CG
Or all hell to you
Am
They didn't build Jerusalem
GAm
They didn't find the land
GAm
For reasons of security
GCAm
They couldn't find the plans
GAm
And we're left standing watching from below
GCG
No new songs and no new heroes
GAm
Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
G C G Am...
Waiting for the day the circle's broken
