And I've thrown the bouquet
   C                     G 
Of flowers left over the grave
  C 
I sat in the waiting
     F       G  C 
Room Wasting my time
    C                     G 
And waiting for judgement day

  F        G  C      F          G C 
I praise liberty the freedom to obey
       F              G    C

Well don't cross the line

Believe what you see
     G#
From heroes and cons?
