VERSE 1
Em
There’s no sense, the fire burns
     C
When wisdom fails it changes all
    D                                 Am      G
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning
 
Em
Blood red skies, It feels so cold
   C
No innocence, we play our role
    D                               Am     G
The wheel embodies all where are we going
 
 
PRE-CHORUS
C                                      Em
All in all you’d expect the wise to be wiser, fallen from grace
    C
And all and all I guess
                     D       B
We should have known better, ’cause...
 
 
CHORUS
           Em            C
What about us? Isn’t it enough?
         D          Am
No we’re not in paradise
               Em                   C
This is who we are, this is what we got
         D           Bm
No, it's not our paradise
         C
But it’s all we want,
         Em                       D     Bm
And it's all that we’re fighting for
                 C D  Em
Though it’s not pa-aradise
 
 
INTERLUDE
(Em) | Em | D | C D |
 
 
VERSE 2
Em
You and us, or I and them
      C
There comes a time to take a stand
    D                                   Am       G
The wheel is watching all, it keeps on burning
 
    Em
The venom works, it’s like a curse
  C
A Trojan horse, when will we learn?
    D                                Am        G
The wheel embodies all, that keeps returning
 
 
PRE-CHORUS
C                                      Em
All in all you’d expect the wise to be wiser, fallen from grace
    C
And all and all I guess
                     D       B
We should have known better, ’cause...
 
 
CHORUS
           Em            C

               Em                   C
This is who we are, this is what we got
         D           Bm
No, it's not our paradise
         C
But it’s all we want,
         Em                       D     Bm
And it's all that we’re fighting for
                 C D  Em
Though it’s not pa-aradise
