F#              G#m 
Somewhere in a room 
        F#         G#m 
With a poster on a wall 
      F#          G#m 
Of a man with his hand 
  F# 
In a fist 

       D#m          F# 
Is a woman who's drinking 
         D#m          F#

That she takes

Every sigh, every sway 
         B                       C# 
You can hear everything that they say 
 G#m 
Something's begun like a war

Or a family or a friendship 
     A#           D#m 
Or a fast love affair

F#               G#m 
The man on the wall 
   F#             G#m 
Is his symbol of freedom

It means he has brothers 
F# 
Who believe as he does 

D#m          F# 
She is moved by 
      D#m          F#           D#m  
The thing that she sees in his face

When he talks of 
F# 
The cause 


      G#m

Verse 3:
 
F#                G#m 
She leans against him 
    F#         G#m 
Her dress is so red 
      F#         G#m 
They talk of the salt 
     F# 
And the truth and the bread 

     D#m        F# 
The night goes along 
   D#m         F# 
The fan goes around 
        D#m          G#m 
In the room off the street 
        F# 
At the end of the town 

 
      G#m 
Every sigh, every sway 
         B                       C# 
You can hear everything that they say 
 G#m 
Something's begun like a war 
                  C# 
Or a family or a friendship 
     A#           D#m 
Or a fast love affair
