These are dangerous times for thinkin'. I'm a stranger in a strange land

Am G C
Far away, far away from distorted times
Am G C
There's green and white in the meadows
Am G C
Fly away, fly away from your worst nightmare
Am G C
As you disappear in the shadows
Am G C
Fly away, fly away from your broken bones
Am G C
Fly away, fly away from evil
Am G C
These big black screens are snatchin' dreams
Am G
Fly away, fly away to freedom
[Verse 3]
C Am
This picture is a chamber of horrors. This picture's a crucifixion
F G
It'll hang on the walls of eternity halls, it will never be forgotten
C Am
When my hands veil the truth behind images, this picture is trying to explain
F G
If this anger smashes into your consciousness, then this picture will not be in vain
F G F
And the camera smells of rusted shells, I created a monster
C F C F
When I painted Guernica. When I painted Guernica
C F C F
When I painted Guernica. Alright
