I am pretty sure these chords are right. If you get a chance purchase Jordan Page's album at www.jordanpagemusic.com. You can also get it on Itunes. Got to support the few liberty/patriot musicians out there. "Pendulum" Lyrics & Chords: G I been walking a tightrope between fact and fiction Em I been wrestling with demons in small bottled prisons C I been talking with sinners who claim to be Christian D I been shouting at leaders who claim to be listening G & the pendulum swings from the left to the right Em and momentum increases the need for the fight C Like a moment of blindness in a lifetime of sight D G & I am caught somewhere in the middle G I saw a president blind to the needs of his people Em I saw a camel that passed through the eye of a needle C I saw a group of old men whose money was evil D I saw a cross breaking free from the cage of a steeple G I saw beggars and cripples dying in squalor Em I saw a son whose sins had exceeded his father C I saw a nation of sleepers whose dreams were forgotten D & a bushel of apples from a tree that was rotten G & the pendulum swings from the left to the right Em as momentum increases the need for the fight C Like a blindfold when its time to walk towards the light D G & I am lost somewhere in the middle [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/jordan-pruitt/253021.html ] G I heard the echo of suffering in the valley of laughter Em I heard the rumble of earthquakes far under the water C heard a court jester whose forked tongue was twisted D Who told us of dangers that never existed G I heard voices that claimed to be moral and righteous Em Whose lies and deceit were all dark and contagious C I heard talk of a country that valued its freedom D But when I protested I was arrested and beaten G & the pendulum swings from the left to the right Em As momentum increases the weight and the height C But if nobody's listening, is anyone right? D G & I can't seem to find the key to the riddle G I met a young woman with a baby inside her Em I looked but there wasn't a safe place to hide her C I met an old man with a face like a mirror D He showed me his sadness so I could see clearer G I met an arrogant leader who robs us and cheats us Em He pretends that his orders come directly from Jesus C When he sends out our children to strange foreign soil D To kill for the right to monopolize oil G I'm a raising my voice 'gainst the house of derision Em That murders our freedom with short-sighted vision C I'll sing a new song about civilization D & the palace of wisdom and the death of a nation G I'll lift up the veil that's hiding the holy Em & remind all the people that change happens slowly C I'll scream out a name to the echoes of Heaven D & pray that the world don't end up where its heading G & the pendulum swings from the left to the right Em as momentum decreases the end is in sight C There's a lunatic handling our future tonight D G & I am lost somewhere in the middle Visit Jordan Page at: http://www.jordanpagemusic.com |
