Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I dreamed there was a fountain
 I dreamed there was a vein
 That overcame the mountain
 Like a condescending rain
 With love that's bigger than Los Angeles
 With a speed that overcame the pain
 Of a thousand left hand promises
 Made by thieves with their good names
 PRE CHORUS:
 There came a song upon a west wind
 That kissed the lips of spoon-fed babes
 Though ignorant inside their blessings
  But it  broke their hearts, and they sang
 Come drink  this water
 Come drink  this blood
 Come and drink  this love
  that you could not afford
 I stood and looked across the waters
 Of a great Atlantic sea
 I saw my sons I saw my daughters
 It's like they had no tears to weep
 PRE CHORUS:
 There came a song upon a west wind
 That kissed the lips of spoon-fed babes
 Though ignorant inside their blessings
 But it broke their hearts, and they sang
 Come drink  this water
 Come drink  this blood
 Come and drink  this love  that you could not afford
 Come drink  this water
 Come drink  this blood
 Come and drink  this love
  that you could not afford
