A Bar In Amsterdam

Em Nine hours passed and how long will it last G A (H) says the man with the plan and a gun in his hand. Em He's scared but prepared it might be as he feared G A (H) are they still in control, and safe behind the wall. Em This evening's too quiet, oh we need a real riot G A (H) to shake and to break and to bite like a snake. Em We're stuck in this attic so bored and so static, G A H tomorrow they'll ask us to throw off our masks. Em G D But the storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight, C G D like a vein full of rain to the hearts that should fight. Em G D The storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight, C G D Em like a vein full of rain to the hearts that should fight. Em Mary's like me she's a loser to be, G A (H) got a lock on her door and a bed on the floor. Em They will know they will win and then they'll come in. G A (H) There's nothing you could say to lead them astray. Em We still live in silence like sworn threats of violence. G A (H) I long for an end and it's coming round the bend. Em If we live through this night and we'd still be all right. G A H We'd flee to Siam or a bar in Amsterdam. Em G D But the storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight, C G D like a vein full of rain to the hearts that should fight.
