Verse
E5                    Emaj7 E5              Emaj7
Mr. Richards, your position is a messenger pigeon, 
E5                    Emaj7 E5
left behind you when the camp moved on.
E5                    Emaj7 E5              Emaj7
You thought that you had listened but the words had never crystallized,
E5                    Emaj7 E5
into a truth that you might own, hey hey


Chorus

Mr Richards your decision, pay attention pay attention


Verse
E5                    Emaj7 E5              Emaj7
Mr. Richards your forgiven for a narrow lack of vision,
E5                    Emaj7 E5
but the firesare still raging on...
E5                    Emaj7 E5              Emaj7
The public's got opinions and these consequences border on the compound that 
E5                    Emaj7 E5
razed where zealots sang, hey, hey

So listen, your intention, sign the paper, stamp the ribbon,
        E5                   Emaj7             E5
You're mistaken if you think we'll just forget.

You can thump your chest and rattle, stand in front of your piano but,
     G          F#m7     E5        G          F#m7  E5
We know, what's going on, Yes, we know what's going on,
           G              F#m7     E5
We're the children of the choir hey,
        G           F#m7     E5
And we know what's going on.


Verse
E5                    Emaj7 E5              Emaj7
Mr. Richards your conviction, had us cheering in the kitchen,
E5                    Emaj7 E5
now the jury's eating pigeon pie,
E5                    Emaj7 E5              Emaj7
So tell me how is prison, have they taught you how to listen?,
E5                    Emaj7 E5
We've begun to bridge the schism, pay attention pay attention,


Chorus
