Repeat riff through verse

Verse 1:
Dm    C          Bb         Dm              
It is nothing to live as we do
C      Bb     Dm
Day to day we roam
C          Bb    Dm  C   Bb  Dm
Hearts without a home of our own
         C       Bb         Dm
Dust and passion lay in our throats
           C    Bb        Dm
Revenge in each word that spoke
           C             Bb          Dm    C  Bb  Dm  C  Bb  Dm  C  Bb
Children's eyes fill our minds as we smoke

Bridge:
Am            F                   Bb              C
But somewhere out in the desert a figure moves at speed
Am         F                    Bb                C     Bb   C   Bb
And in his heart he carries the message that they need

Chorus:
Dm       Bb
We move against the tyrant
Dm                  Bb
Words fall from his lips
Gm         Eb                 G      Eb
The fire inside their eyes is lit
Dm          Bb
At daybreak freedom calls
Dm           Bb
We answer as one
Gm          Eb              G         Eb      G    Eb  G  Eb
>From hiding in the hills we enter the burning sun

Intro riff

Verse 2:
Danger fills the air and the dawn
Holds a sweet but stale perfume
Women know that soon they may lose
What good are men that love but are slaves
In a country they once called their own?
As they kissed goodbye they have flown

Bridge:
To be there out in the desert as horses move at speed
And in each heart is carried the message that they need
