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 theyll hear me in the metropolis
D# Gm
So Im 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 Im tired and you know that Im stressed
D# Gm
You cant stop me and you cant 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
Thats 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 faade
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 serpents 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
Dont come back again till you end the mission
Cm G#
If it takes a long time dont lose the vision
D# Gm
If youre stuck check the blueprint, look within
Cm G#
Reflection, got to find the rhythm
D# Gm
Wont you please return child Where you been
Cm G#
She says I cant come home because he wont let me in
D# Gm
And besides we dont need no more friction
Cm
Used to look so nice, howd you get so thin?
G#
And your heart's like ice, its 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#
Dont you know wherever we go thick and thin
D# Gm
You are still my children
Cm G# D# Bb
Since youve been gone my souls been hurting
Chorus
Bridge: Cm G# D# Gm
