Never Again I Now

Intro 
Dm 

 
Dm                                     C 
We were children in the rubble and the rain, 
Gm                            Dm 
Little hands that cleared the pain. 
Dm                         C 
Bricks and ash beneath our feet, 
   Bb                      Dm 
Learning loss before wed eat. 
 

 
Dm                         C 
Then came work and rising light, 
Gm                    Dm 
Factory days and neon nights. 
Dm                              C 
From shattered streets to steady ground, 
     Bb                C         Dm 
The Wirtschaftswunder humming sound. 
 

 
           F              C 
From broken stone to open sky, 
              Dm              Am 
We watched the wounded nation rise. 
          Bb                    C 
Years roll on, but hearts stay strong 
         Bb         C     Dm 
Hold to hope, keep moving on. 

Dm 
 

 
Dm                           C 
Seventies wind and eighties fear, 
Gm                       Dm 
Cold War shadows drawing near. 
Dm                     C 
Sirens in the midnight air, 
         Bb                 Dm 
Still we dreamed beyond despair. 
 

 
Dm                       C 
Nineties bells began to ring, 
Gm                                Dm 
Walls came down, and crowds would sing. 
                               C 
Through the new millenniums light, 
     Bb                C         Dm 
We prayed for peace, for what is right. 
 

 
           F              C 
From broken stone to open sky, 
              Dm              Am 
We watched the wounded nation rise. 
          Bb                    C 
Years roll on, but hearts stay strong 
         Bb         C     Dm 
Hold to hope, keep moving on. 
 

 
Dm                           C 
Now were older, silver-haired, 
G                       Dm 
See old ghosts again declared. 
 Bb                                C 
Marching chants we thought were gone 
     Bb          C      Dm 
Historys echo sounding on. 
 

 
Dm                           C 
But sparks ignite in crowded streets, 
Gm                      Dm 
More refuse to bow in defeat. 
                              C 
Stand up tall, dont ever forget 
       Bb                         Dm 
Never again is nownever again is now. 
 

 
           F              C 
From broken stone to open sky, 
              Dm              Am 
We watched the wounded nation rise. 
          Bb                    C 
Time moves on, the fights not done 
         Bb         C        Dm 
Lose not hopeour song lives on. 
 

 
Bb                        C 
Weve seen a nation fall before, 
                           Dm 
Heard the drums of hate and war. 
                           C 
If were silent, shadows grow 
                             Bb 
If we stand, the light will show. 

Never again is now. 
               C 
Never again is now. 
 

 
           Bb              C 
From broken stone to open sky, 
              Bb              C 
We watched the wounded nation rise. 
          Bb                    C 
Through every age, through every vow 
         Bb         C        Dm 
Never lose hope. Never again is now. 
 

 
                     F          C 
From children of the dust and flame 
                   Dm          Am 
To elders who still guard the name, 
           Bb               C 
Life goes on, we take the vow 
               Bb  C   Dm 
Never again is now.
