 Verse:
D5    E5               D5        C5       D5
    I thought i heard something calling me 
E5            D5       C5     D5 
 I’d seen the pictures on TV
E5              D5            C5       D5     
So i made up my mind that I’d go and see
      E5        D5       C5      D5
With my own eyes
         E5        D5     C5         D5       
It didnt take too long, to hitch a ride
E5              E5          C5          D5 
With a guy going south, to start a new life
E5             D5             C5            D5 
Past the place where my friend died two years ago

Pre-Chorus (lyrics change 2nd time around):
(Just single strokes on each chord now...)
         E5   D5       C5        D5  
Down the 303 at the end of the road
E5             D5   C5        D5    
flashing lights, exclusion zones
      E5         D5           C5         D5                 
And it made me think, its not just the stones 
E5             D5       C5       D5   
that their guarding

Chorus: (change to barre chords):
Em       D      C     D 
Hey hey, now can’t you see?
Em             D          C            D
theres nothing here that you can call free
Em             D       C 
their getting their kicks 
       D         Em       D      C      D
from laughing at you and me

Verse: As the sun rose on the beanfield
They came like wolf on the fold
And no they didnt give a warning
they took their bloody toll

I’ve seen a pregnant women
lying in blood of her own
i’ve seen her children crying 
as the police tore apart their home

Pre-Chorus
And n they didnt need a reason
Its what your votes condone
it seems they were commiting treason
By trying to live on their own

Chorus

And thats pretty much it, theres an instrumental bit, but its all the sanme chords as far as i can tell. This is one of my all time favourite 
evellers songs, and it rock, have fun! :-D
