TAB Transcription by Luis Ferreira
Lyrics were posted by someone (?) else, but they were corrected by me.
Well, at least I changed them... :)
The chords to the strummed part were left unchanged, everything else was
replaced by TAB. (Last time I forgot to mention the chords were not my own)

Mother doesn't know where love has gone
She says it must be youth that keeps this feeling strong
I see it in her face that's turned to ice
And when she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice
And now I know what they're saying as our sun begins to fade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades
Mother.. ...gone...

{ Now play the 2nd part of the lyrics just like you did before }
Father made my history
He fought for what he thought would set us somehow free
They taught me what to say in school
I learned it half by heart but now that's torn in two
And now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades

Born on different sides of life
We fear the same and feel all of this strife
So come to me when I'm asleep ( sleep )
We'll cross the lines and dance upon the streets
And now I know what they're saying as the drums begin to fade
And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades
Born... ...life
