Lonely Man Of Spandau

(A  C#  D  E  A) 2x

A                C#
Lonely isn't the word to use
D                        E
For a man who's lost his right to choose
So many years upon his head
All of those days of constant dread
C#           D               E               N.C.
Freedom is a dirty word with four grey walls so absurd.

A             C#
Freedom is so far away

They took the key, threw it away
Forgiveness is a virtue
That seems to be forgotten
C#               D            E               N.C.
All is lost in a sea of hate, they can't even seal his fate.

Let him go

He ain't got so long to go.

G                      A
The super powers won't give an inch
C#                       D
They got their showpiece in a cage
How can so much pleasure
Be obtained from a man of bygone days
G          A          C#
Or perhaps they don't want to choose.

Let him go
Let him go

The abne and scourge of hatred
D       E
And his lonely years
Just goes to prove
Not only the guilty rule by fear

To see a man broken without any tears
