G C G C G D

       G                  
I will rise from my bed
        C         G
With a question again
C            G
As I work to inherit 
D
The restless wind
G
The view from my window
   C        G
Is cold and obscene
C G I want to touch D G What my eyes haven't seen G But they have packaged our virtue C G In cellulose dreams C G And sold us the remnants D Til our pockets are clean G Til our hopes fall 'round our feet C G Like the dust of dead leaves C G And we end up lookin' D G Like what we believe C G We are soot-covered urchins C D Running wild and unshod G C We will always be remembered D G C G C C/B D As the orphans of God G Like bees in a bottle C G We are flying at fate C G Beating our wings D Against the walls of this place G Unaware that the struggle C G Is the blood of the proof C G In choosing to believe D G The unbelievable truth G But they have captured our siblings C G They rendered them mute C G Disputed our lineage D And poisoned our roots G We have bought from the brokers C G Who have broken their oaths C G And we're out on the streets D G With a lump in our throats C G We are soot-covered urchins C D Running wild and unshod G C We will always be remembered D G As the orphans of God C G They will dig up these ruins C D And make flutes of our bones G C And blow a hymn to the memory D G C G C G D G C G C G D G Of the orphans of God >From Strong Hands Of Love A Tribute To Mark Heard Word Records 1994 © 1992 SATELLITE SKY
