[Verse 1]

F#m                        B               F#m
I thought of you when they closed down the school
         B       F#m
And the hospital too
         E
Did they think that you were better?
          F#m
They were wrong
    B           F#m
You had so many friends
          B              F#m
They all left you in the end
            E
‘Cause they couldn’t take the patter


[Chorus Part 1]

         Bm                    E     Bm
And I’ll see you baby when the clans rise again
E         Bm    D
Women and men united by a struggle
      Bm
Going down
              E             Bm
You’ve got to walk into the water
          E               Bm
With your sister and your daughter
        G
In this free world


[Verse 2]

   F#m                        B                   F#m
If I wore your shades could I share your point of view?
        B             F#m
Could I make you feel better?
        E
Paint a picture, write a letter?
       F#m               B
Well I know what you’re saying
      F#m                B
But I see the things you do
         F#m      B
And it’s much too dangerous
       E
To get closer to you


[Chorus]

           Bm                    E     Bm
But I will see you baby when the clans rise again
E         Bm   D
Women and men united by the struggle
      Bm
Going down
       E            Bm
With a pocketful of plastic
       E          Bm
Like a dollar on elastic
        G                 A            G
In this free world
           A                     Bm
I wouldn’t tell you if I didn’t (care)


     Bm                    E     Bm
I’ll see you baby when the clans rise again
E         Bm   D
Women and men united by the struggle
        Bm                   E        Bm
And the ghettoes are full of Mercedes Benz
          E            Bm
And you’d never hurt a friend
             G
Who wouldn’t tell you


[Verse 3]

     F#m           B            F#m
It’s cold and it’s going to get colder
    B                F#m
You may not get much older
       E
You’re much too scared of living
       F#m        B      F#m
And to die is a reliable exit
       B               F#m
So you push it and you test it
     E
With Thunderbird and Rivin


[Chorus]

     Bm                    E     Bm
I’ll see you baby when the clans rise again
E         Bm    D
Women and men united by the struggle
        Bm
In this free world baby
       E              Bm
Got to take it got to grab it
       E             Bm
Got to get it up and shag it
        G              A
In this free world
      Bm
Going down
              E            Bm
You’ve got to get into the water
       E                Bm
Like a lamb goes to the slaughter
        G
In this free world baby
      Bm
Going down
       E            Bm
With a pocketful of plastic
        E        Bm
Like a dollar on elastic
        G           A          G
In this free world
           A                      Bm
I wouldn’t tell you if I didn’t care
