Intro: Fm G# G7 G 

verse 1 
     C                   G          Am 
I've seen you change the water into wine 
     C                  G              Am 
I've seen you change it back to water, too 
  F           E           Am 
I sit at your table every night 
  Dm                       G         G7 
I try but I just don't get high with you 

verse 2 
  C                G               Am 
I wish there was a treaty we could sign 
  C               G                 Am 
I do not care who takes this bloody hill 
    F             E             Am 
I'm angry and I'm tired all the time 
  Dm                         F 
I wish there was a treaty, I wish there was a treaty 
Fm                        C      G    G7 
    Between your love and mine 

Outro 
            F              Bb              F 
Ah, they're dancing in the street—it's Jubilee 
   F                  Bb                 F 
We sold ourselves for love but now we're free 
       Am                              Dm  F 
I'm so sorry for that ghost I made you be 
     Bb                 E 
Only one of us was real 
             C    G   G7 
and that was me 

Verse 
  C              G                   Am 
I haven't said a word since you been gone 
     C        G               Am 
That any liar couldn't say as well 
       F                 E             Am 
I just can't believe the static coming on 
            Dm                  F        Fm 
You were my ground, my safe and sound 
            C         G       G7 
You were my aerial 

Outro 
        F                 Bb           F 
Ah, the fields are crying out—it's Jubilee 
    F                 Bb                 F 
We sold ourselves for love but now we're free 
       Am                              Dm  F 
I'm so sorry for that ghost I made you be 
     Bb                 E 
Only one of us was real 
             C    G   G7 
and that was me 

verse 1 
  C                   G              Am 
I heard the snake was baffled by his sin 
   C                  G                Am 
He shed his scales to find the snake within 
    F             E              Am 
But born again is born without a skin 
    Dm                      G         G7 
The poison enters into everything 

verse 2 
      C                G               Am 
And I wish there was a treaty we could sign 
  C               G                 Am 
I do not care who takes this bloody hill 
    F             E             Am 
I'm angry and I'm tired all the time 
  Dm                         F 
I wish there was a treaty, I wish there was a treaty 
Fm                        C   G  Am 
    Between your love and mine 
C  G  Am 
F  E  Am 
Dm  F  Fm  C
