TEARS FOR FEARS: "SOWING THE SEEDS OF LOVE" (Roland Orzabal / Curt Smith)
Verse One: -----------------
High time we made a stand Am/D And shook up the views of the common man Am/D And the love train, rides from coast to coast Am/D DJ's the man we love the most
Could you be could you be squeaky clean
And smash every hope of democracy Am/D As the headline says you're free to choose Am/D There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes Am/D One of these days they're gonna call it the blues
Chorus: -----------
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love
Sowing the seeds
(Repeat)
Verse two (same chords as verse one): --------------------------------------------------------- I spy, tears in their eyes They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention, food goes to waste So nice to eat, so nice to taste
Politician granny with your high ideals Have you no idea how the majority feels So without love and a promised land We're fools to the rules of the government plan Kick out the style, bring back the jam
(Chorus)
Instrumental: -------------------
Verse Three: ------------------
Feel the pain, talk about it
If you're a worried man, then shout about it
Open hearts, feel about it
Open minds, think about it
Everyone, read about it
Everyone, scream about it
Everyone, everyone
Everyone, read about it
Read it in the books, in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read
(Chorus -- omit words)
Bridge: ----------
Sowing the seeds of love
Sowing the seeds
Sowing the seeds of love
Sowing the seeds of love
Mister England sowing the seeds of love
Verse Four: -----------------
Time to eat all your words Am/D Swallow your pride, Open your eyes
Time to eat all your words Am/D Swallow your pride, Open your eyes
High time we made a stand Am/D And shook up the views of the common man Am/D And the love train, rides from coast to coast Am/D Every minute of every hour Am/D I love a sunflower Am/DAm/DAm/DAm/D And I believe in love power, love power, love power
