Political World(Chords)

	        F#m 
We live in a political world 
Love don't have any place 
We're living in times 
Where men commit crimes 
And crime don't have any face. 

We live in a political world 
Icicles hanging down 
Wedding bells ring 
And angels sing 
Clouds cover up the ground. 

We live in a political world 
Wisdom is thrown in jail 
It rots in a cell 
Is misguided as hell 
Leaving no one to pick up a trail. 

We live in a political world 
Where mercy walks the plank 
Life is in mirrors 
Death disappears 
Up the steps into the nearest bank. 

We live in a political world 
Where courage is a thing of the past 
Houses are haunted 
Children unwanted 
The next day could be your last. 

We live in a political world 
The one we can see and feel 
But there's no one to check 
It's all a stacked deck 
We all know for sure that it's real. 

We live in a political world 
In the cities of lonesome fear 
Little by little 
You turn in the middle 
But you're never sure why you're here. 

We live in a political world 
Under the microscope 
You can travel anywhere 
And hang yourself there 
You always got more than enough rope. 

We live in a political world 
Turning and trashing about 
As soon as you're awake 
You're trained to take 
What looks like the easy way out. 

We live in a political world 
Where peace is not welcome at all 
It's turned away from the door 
To wonder some more 
Or put up against the wall. 

We live in a political world 
Everything is hers and his 
Climb into the frame 
And shout God's name 
But you're never sure what it is
