Dm



[Verse 1]



        Dm

Well, a cop got away

     Dm

With murder today

            Bb

Sparked the march

       E     A

Of the fiery brigade

         Dm                          Dm

How they screamed at the lenses, the lawyers and lights

         Bb                           E            A

And they hurled all their curses with all of their might

        Bb

And the news

                    A

Said glad that it's over

               Bb

The left-paper rags

                  E     A

Said there goes another

         Dm             E              Gm           A

And both sides left the signs with the stacked barricades

Bb                  A           Dm     Dm Bb E A

 It'll wash it all away when it rains



[Verse 2]



           Dm

Well, they came down from high rises

Dm

Mansions, estates

                Bb

Downtown into a city

   E       A

Of catered champagne

         Dm

And they laughed and they danced

         Dm

And they dined on their steaks

           Bb

There were floors to be swept

    E           A

And bills to be paid

        Bb

And the mayor

                   A

Said glad you came over

                Gm

And now what to do

           Bb          A

With these jailed wild rovers?

        Dm             E          Gm           A

All the courts, and confetti, and dumpsters in flames

Bb                  A           Dm

 It'll wash it all away when it rains

[Verse 3]

          Dm

There's a man on the bridge

    Dm

Old rust and new paint

          Bb

While the marching machine's

         E           A

Spilling sand by the bay

       Dm

Pump's busted again

        Dm

For the rivers and trains

          Bb

While the choirs all preach

         E           A

'Bout an earth to be saved

          Bb

Don't you know

                   A

There's no need to worry

           Gm

Of the old tale

       Bb        A

With a beautiful ending

        Dm

All the shells

        E

And the smoke

        Gm              Dm

And the hallowed ground paved

        Dm

And the scraps

        E

And the crumbs

        Gm            A

And the mess that we made

      Dm           E         Gm       A

And I wish that it all would just go away

Bb                   A

  It'll wash it all away

        A7      Dm

When it rains
