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
