[VERSE 1]
Oh[C] I.R.A. and[Am] U.V.F. this[F] song is just for[C] you
As you sit down at th[Am]e table now to[F] see what you can[G] do
At[F] last you’ve come to[G]gether after[C] all the tears and[F] time
It’s[C] sad you didn’t[G] do it back in[F] Nineteen[G] Sixty[C] Nine
Hi[C]story calls[Am] you savages[F] but I know that [C]isn’t true
For we gr[Am]ew up together[F] and I am part of[G] you
We[F] all had dreams and [G]hopes and fe[C]ars and someone el[F]se to blame
It t[C]ook so long to [G]realize our dr[F]eams were[G] all t[C]he same
[CHORUS]
You[C] know our [F]dreams were all th[C]e same
But[F] who would dare[C] proclaim
In the[F] anger and the[G] pain
Our[F] dreams were[G] all the[C] same

[C] [Am] [F] C
We felt the taste of hunger when they factory went away
And then they closed [Am]the hospital t[F]hey said it didn’[G]t pay
An[F]d as the rich got ri[G]cher and kep[C]t promising the sk[F]y
All [C]we got were pr[G]omises and col[F]ored[G] flags t[C]o fly
I [C]remember we[Am]ll your litt[F]le girl she had r[C]ibbons in her hair
When she came to play that S[Am]ummer’s day wi[F]th the children i[G]n the square
To[F] think they could be[G] here today [C]still laughing and[F] alive
If s[C]trong men had b[G]een wise men i[F]n Ninetee[G]n Seve[C]nty Nine
[CHORUS]
You[C] know our [F]dreams were all th[C]e same
But[F] who would dare[C] proclaim
In the[F] anger and the[G] pain
Our[F] dreams were[G] all the[C] same
[VERSE 3]
[C] [Am] [F] C
It was always all or nothing there was nothing in between
Compromise wa[Am]s treachery th[F]at’s the way it s[G]eemed
An[F]d now we’re left wit[G]h nothing bu[C]t a future we must[F] find
And [C]count the cost [G]of the chances[F] lost in [G]Ninete[C]en Eighty Nine
[C] [Am] [F] C
Oh I.R.A. and U.V.F. this song is just for you
As you sit down [Am]at the table n[F]ow to see what yo[G]u can do
At[F] last you’ve come to[G]gether after[C] all the tears and[F] time
It’s[C] sad you didn’t[G] do it back in[F] Nineteen[G] Ninet[C]y Nine
