Through The Barricades Chords

[Intro]
G  Em  Bm  Bm7
C  Em  F   C  Cm   D


[Verse 1]
G                Em                  Bm7
 Mother doesn't know where love has 
gone
C             Em                 F      
 She says it must be youth that keeps 
         C
us feeling strong
G                 Em                 
 I see it in her face that's turned 
Bm7
to ice
C              Em                   F   
 and when she smiles she shows the 
         D
lines of sacrifice


[Chorus]
         C                 D         
And now I know what they're sayin' as 
   G             Em
our sun begins to fade
      C                Am   C        
And we made our love on wasteland and 
D             G
through the barricades


[Verse 2]
G        Em          Bm7
  Father made my history
C               Em                    F 
 He fought for what he thought would 
           C
set us somehow free
G              Em             Bm7
  He taught me what to say in school
C              Em               F       
 I learned it off by heart but now 
          D
that's torn in two


[Chorus]
         C                 D         
And now I know what they're sayin' in 
   G              Em
the music of the parade
      C                Am   C        
And we made our love on wasteland and 
D             F
through the barricades


[Instrumental]
F  C  G


[Verse 3]
G          Em                 Bm7
  Born on different sides of life
C    Em                F              
 We fear the same and feel all of 
 C
this strife
G            Em           Bm7
  So come to me when I'm asleep (asleep)
C       Em                  F           
 We'll cross the lines and dance upon 
D
the streets


[Chorus]
         C                 D         
And now I know what they're sayin' as 
   G              Em
the drums begin to fade
      C                Am   C        
And we made our love on wasteland and 
D            G
through the barricades


[Bridge]
F     C                       G
  Oh, turn around and I'll be there
             F                     
Oh, there's a scar right through my 
C                   G
heart but I'll bear it again
      F                          C
Oh, I thought we were the human race
            G                       Em
but we were just another borderline case
        C
And the stars reach down and tell us
                     D
there's always one escape


[Verse 4]
G          D/F#                  Em
Oh, I don't know where love has gone
C                 Em             C    
 But in this troubled land 
           D
desperation keeps us strong
G          D/F#             Em
  Friday's child is full of soul
C              Em                 
 With nothing left to lose 
 C           D
there's everything to go


[Chorus]
     C                 D              
Now I know what they're sayin', it's a 
G                  Em
terrible beauty we've made
     C                Am   C        
So we make our love on wasteland and 
D             G
through the barricades

         C                 D         
And now I know what they're sayin' as 
   Em       D     C
our hearts go to their graves
      C                Am   C        
And we made our love on wasteland, oh 
   D                 F
and through the barricades
