[Verse]
A7              D 
The powers that be
A7                            D 
That force us to live like we do
A7             D    
Bring me to my knees

Knowing that deep in my heart

For making us part

Like a break in the battle was your part oh oh oh oh ■

In the wretched life of a lonely heart ■
