Dm A#

Sitting in an armchair,

F C

my head between my hands

Dm A#

I wouldn't have to be like this

F C

if you'd only understand

Dm A#

Too many misundertandings

F C

causing such delay

Dm A#

And If it doesn't work like this

F C

well I'll try another way

Dm A# F C

Ohhhh If this is the way you wanted it

Dm A# F C

Ohhhh I didn't understand

Dm A# F C

Ohhhh If this is the way you wanted it

Dm A# F C

Ohhhh I didn't understand

Dm A#

You know that all I wanted

F C

was to be there by your side.

Dm A#

And if you didn't want it

F C

Then you shouldn't have denied.

Dm A#

You knew that you were someone special

F C

right from the start

Dm A#

But if you treat me badly

F C

we'd be better off apart.

Dm A# F C

Ohhhh If this is the way you wanted it

Crying in my head again and I know that it's not clear

Verse 2: played as verse 1

Thinking about on how things were and on how we loved so well

I wanted to be the mother of your child and now it's just farewell

Put your hands in my hands and come with me, find another hand (?)

In my head, in my head, on anyone's shoulder, 'cause I can't be with you

Chorus: same as chorus above

Be with you, be with you, be with you, be with you

Be with you, be with you, baby I can't be with you

Cause you're not here, cause you're not here, baby I can't be with you

Cause you're not here, cause you're not here, baby still in love with you

You must have nothing more with your time to do

There's a war in Russia and Sarajevo too

So to hell with what you're thinking

And to hell with your narrow mind

Your so distracted from the real things

You should leave your life behind

(chorus)

(Bridge: Same chords as verse, with some vocal wailing)

(chorus)

- -

Another head hangs lowly

Child is slowly taken

And the violence caused such silence

Who are we mistaken

but you see, it's not me

it's not my family

in your head, in your head

they are fighting

- - - -

Chorus

- - - -

With their tanks, and their bombs,

and their bombs, and their guns

In your head, in your head they are cryin'

In your head, In your head

Zombie, etc.

What's in your head in your head, in your head

Zombie, etc.

Another mother's breakin'

heart is taking over

when the violence causes silence

we must be mistaken

it's the same old theme since 1916

in your head,

in your head they're still fightin'

Chorus
