Where the winds of change were blowin',
Em
There lived a God-fearing man
Dm G
He was turning through his Bible
Am
When he came up with a plan
Am Em
He painted up a sign and held it high above his head
Dm G
Waved it proudly in the air
Am
And this is what it read
G C Dm
You can't break the law
Am
There are reasons for the rules
Dm G
They keep things safe here for everyone
Am
The Sinners, Saints, and Fools
G C Dm
The poor and huddled masses
Am
Who are hungry and afraid
Dm G
You gotta do it by the book and there'll be
Am
No exceptions made
Am
To the weary, desperate souls
Em
Who washed up on the sand
Dm G Am
He said, "We haven't seen your paperwork" and he withdrew his hand
Am
You know he never felt any safer,
Em
Or the peace he hoped he'd find
Dm G
And up until the day he died,
Am
He never changed his mind
Am G C Dm
You can't break the law
Am
There are reasons for the rules
Dm G
They gotta keep things safe here for everyone
Am
The Sinners, Saints, and Fools
G C Dm
The poor and huddled masses
Am
Who are hungry and afraid
Dm G
You gotta do it by the book and there'll be
Am
No exceptions ma-a-ade
Am
By the time he got to Heaven,
Em
It was surrounded by a wall
Dm G
The pearly gates were locked up tight,
Am
The golden chains and all
Am Em
They said, "We cannot let just anyone walk in here anymore
Dm G Am
You didn't do it by the book," and then they pointed to the floor
C Dm
You can't break the law
Am
There are reasons for the rule
Dm G
They keep things safe here for everyone
Am
You Sinners, Saints, and Fools
G C Dm
The poor and huddled masses
Am
Who are hungry and afraid
Dm G
You gotta do it by the book and there'll be
Am
No exceptions ma-a-ade
