Hey! A really simple song once you get the hang of the rythm. The song is 
based on one phrase which repeats for the entire song:
G - Cadd9 - Em - D - Dsus4
At the end of the the D Tracy plays one stroke on Dsus4 and then back to D  
for one stroke, but i've chosen not to write it out because it gets so messy. 

So for every D that follows you should play:

E-|-2--3--2|
B-|-3--3--3|
G-|-2--2--2|
D-|-0--0--0|
A-|--------|
E-|--------|

As always with chords written out like this, listen to the song to get the 
timing right. The chords are written over the words that are sung at the 
moment where you're supposed to change (Almost 100% accurate :) ). 


Intro: G  - Cadd9 - EmD   (X2)
 
G          Cadd9  
Don't you know  
         Em              D   G  
They're talkin' about a revolution  
   Cadd9          Em      D  
It sounds (like a whisper)
G          Cadd9  
Don't you know  
        Em             D   G  
They're talkin' about a revolution  
   Cadd9          Em      D  
It sounds (like a whisper)



D             G               Cadd9      Em  D  
While they're standing in the welfare lines  
G             Cadd9              Em           D  
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
G       Cadd9        Em           D  
Wasting time in the unemployment lines  
G       Cadd9   Em               D  
Sitting around waiting for a promotion  



G            Cadd9  
Don't you know  
        Em               D   G  
They're talkin' about a revolution  
   Cadd9          Em      D  
It sounds (like a whisper)
G           Cadd9          Em  
Poor people gonna rise up  
    D         G     Cadd9  Em  D  
And get their share  
G           Cadd9          Em  
Poor people gonna rise up  
   D             G     Cadd9  Em  D  
And take what's theirs  



G                         Cadd9                                       
Don't you know you better run, run, run, run,
Em                  D                G         
run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Cadd9     Em   D



G                    Cadd9                   
Oh I said you better run, run, run, run, 
Em                   D               G          
run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run 
Cadd9    Em   D



G     Cadd9       Em            D          G  
  Cuz finally the tables are starting to turn  
Cadd9               Em    D  
Talkin' bout a revolution  
G      Cadd9      Em          D          G

Cadd9               Em     D
 Talkin' bout a revolution ooh
D           G               Cadd9       Em  D  
I've been standing in the welfare lines  
G                  Cadd9           Em            D  
  Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
G      Cadd9         Em           D  
Wasting time in the unemployment lines  
G        Cadd9    Em              D  
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

  And finally the tables are starting to turn  
Cadd9                Em    D  
Talkin' bout a revolution  
G     Cadd9       Em            D          G  
  Yes finally the tables are starting to turn

Talkin' bout a revolution    oh  no
Cadd9                  Em    D    G  
Talkin' bout a revolution    oh  no
Cadd9                  Em    D    G  
Talkin' bout a revolution    oh  no
