Still I hear you and I love you And I'll follow you elsewhere And I'll remember this occasion I'll remember being aware We've got panic in the evening We've got fall-out in the streets And I hear you and I follow you And I'll call out and I'll say I can hear your sister call out And I hear her call your name They're calling sweet surrender And things won't be the same And don't you think that I don't care And don't you think that I don't know And don't you hear them calling out In a place not far from here And I hear big wheels are turning Some things are not to fear They say this is the time and place They call street fighting years And I hear great wheels are turning And I tell you not to fear They say this is the time and place They call street fighting years And I love you, I look for you And I walk to you, I walk to you And I hear big wheels are turning Is there no way out of here? They'll be calling out tomorrow e|0--1--0--------------1-----| B|---------1-----------1-----| G|------------2---0----2-----| D|---------------------3-----| A|0--------------------3-----| E|------------3--------1-----|
