Intro: Cm G# D# Gm x4
Cm G#
See the daughter of Zion once precious princess
D# Gm
Left her father's house to walk streets that never rest
Cm G#
Maybe they�ll hear me in the metropolis
D# Gm
So I�m sending an SOS
Cm G#
Fighting with her �ta� she wants out of this mess
D# Gm
And them big city lights might brighten up the darkness
Cm G#
You know that I�m tired and you know that I�m stressed
D# Gm
You can�t stop me and you can�t stop this
Cm G#
You could call the police try to make an arrest
D# Gm
Today is the day that I repossess
Cm G#
Leaving on the first bus that I can get
D# Gm
Now its rings around eyes sopping wet from rain droplets
Cm G#
Window shopping for some solace no address and penniless
D# Gm
That�s the price you pay for running away from the stress
Cm G#
Feeling the pain likes to dance by the DJ
D# Bb
Reminds me of a time when things were ok
Chorus:
Fm G# Fm
Frightened by her own shadow
G# Fm Bb
Now she wants to go home
D# Bb Fm G# Bb
Many names for one G-d
Cm Bb Fm G#
Trotting on, through the fa�ade
D# Bb
You were all my children
Fm G# Bb
Got to dig for that feeling
Cm Bb Fm G#
Love will break down this concealment
Cm G#
Strip away the serpent�s skin We came to win
D# Gm
Dispatch the troops send out the captain
Cm G#
My gem is held captive in the dungeon
D# Gm
Don�t come back again till you end the mission
Cm G#
If it takes a long time don�t lose the vision
D# Gm
If you�re stuck check the blueprint, look within
Cm G#
Reflection, got to find the rhythm
D# Gm
Won�t you please return child Where you been
Cm G#
She says I can�t come home because he won�t let me in
D# Gm
And besides we don�t need no more friction
Cm
Used to look so nice, how�d you get so thin?
G#
And your heart's like ice, it�s a heart of sin
D#
Skin white like a ghost with a pale complexion
Gm
Pray to g-d for the dead we need resurrection
Cm G#
Don�t you know wherever we go thick and thin
D# Gm
You are still my children
Cm G# D# Bb
Since you�ve been gone my soul�s been hurting
Chorus
Bridge: Cm G# D# Gm
Chorus
Fm G# Fm
wondering through this world
G# Fm Bb
We are just boys and girls
D# Bb Fm G# Bb
Many names for one G-d
Cm Bb Fm G#
Trotting on, through the fa�ade
D# Bb
You were all my children
Fm G# Bb
Got to dig for that feeling
Cm Bb Fm G#
Love will break down this concealmenthe facade
