                  G  
I will rise from my bed
                     C                      G  
With a question again
C                              G  
As I work to inherit
D  
The restless wind
G  
The view from my window
        C                    G  
Is cold and obscene
C                      G  
I want to touch
                     D                              G  
What my eyes haven't seen
G  
But they have packaged our virtue
C                              G  
In cellulose dreams
C                                      G  
And sold us the remnants
                     D  
Til our pockets are clean
                     G  
Til our hopes fall 'round our feet
                        C                              G  
Like the dust of dead leaves
C                                    G  
And we end up lookin'
             D                         G  
Like what we believe
                  C                              G  
We are soot-covered urchins
                     C                      D  
Running wild and unshod
                     G                      C  
We will always be remembered
                  D                         G            C      G    C  C/B    D  
As the orphans of God
             G  
Like bees in a bottle
                  C                      G  
We are flying at fate
C                            G  
Beating our wings
                                D  
Against the walls of this place
     G  
Unaware that the struggle
                  C                              G  
Is the blood of the proof
C                                    G  
In choosing to believe
                D                         G  
The unbelievable truth
G  
But they have captured our siblings
             C                                 G  
They rendered them mute
C                              G  
Disputed our lineage
          D  
And poisoned our roots
                        G  
We have bought from the brokers
                        C                              G  
Who have broken their oaths
                          C                            G  
And we're out on the streets
                  D                              G  
With a lump in our throats
                  C                              G  
We are soot-covered urchins
                     C                         D  
Running wild and unshod
                     G                         C  
We will always be remembered
                  D                            G  
As the orphans of God
                          C                                 G  
They will dig up these ruins
                          C                              D  
And make flutes of our bones
                             G                            C  
And blow a hymn to the memory
                  D                         G      C      G    C      G    D    G    C      G      C      G    D    G
