Back When

[Verse]
C      Dsus2 Em                    C           Dsus2           Em                         
Fade away, exploiting our children. When you ignore them, they flow down the river of all your 
     C
life
                      Dsus2      Em                    C                Dsus2            Em
Three times you heard them, they begged for a companion for the need to cure their loneliness

[Chorus]
            C                   Dsus2            Em
An innocent child you are, back when, so full of life you were
                         C             Dsus2           Em
Back when, and I saw the aging eyes of wisdom creeping in
            C                Dsus2                Em
And so you lost it all, back when, as I wrote the news of the war
                         C                  Dsus2      Em
Back when, in time never change the way you were back when

[Verse]
C           Dsus2 Em                       C             Dsus2        Em                 
 Behind the wall  sinners hide their faces, those with coercive hands bleeding out what 
             C
little hope remained
    Dsus2    Em                      C               Dsus2     Em
For them and still for a moment your innocence cries out for a way

[Chorus]
            C                   Dsus2            Em
An innocent child you are, back when, so full of life you were
                         C             Dsus2           Em
Back when, and I saw the aging eyes of wisdom creeping in
            C                Dsus2                Em
And so you lost it all, back when, as I wrote the news of the war
                         C                  Dsus2      Em
Back when, in time never change the way you were back when

C Dsus2 C Dsus2                    Em      Em Dsus2
Ahhh        pain of a thousand sorrows

C Dsus2 C Dsus2 Em

[Verse]
C      Dsus2    Em                     C         Dsus2                Em                 
 Fade away with nothing left to wonder. Left in another's hands, they flow down the river
             C
 of all your life
             Dsus2     Em                 C                Dsus2            Em
Three times again they beg for a companion for the need to cure their loneliness

[Chorus]
               C                   Dsus2            Em
Oh an innocent child you are, back when, so full of life you were
                         C             Dsus2           Em
Back when, and I saw the aging eyes of wisdom creeping in
            C                Dsus2                Em
And so you lost it all, back when, as I wrote the news of the war
                         C                  Dsus2      Em
Back when, in time never change the way you were back when
