Verse:
[G]Oh, sweet thing, Zion doesn't [C]love you
And Babylon don't [D]love you, but you love every[G]everything
Oh, you saint, America don't [C]love you
So I could never [D]love you, in spite of every[G]everything
 
Pre-Chorus:
In the [Bm]dark of this place, there's the [Em]glow of your face
There's the [Am]dust on the screen, of this [G]broken mac[D]machine
And I [Bm]can't help but feel, that I [Em]made some mistake, but I let it [Am]go
 
Ya hey, ya hey, ya hey
 
Chorus:
[C]Through the fire and through the flames
-[D]-Ya hey Ya hey, Ut Deo [G]Ya Hey Ya Hey, Ut Deo [C]Ya Hey Ya Hey -
 
You won't even say your name
-[D]-Ya hey Ya hey, Ut Deo [G]Ya Hey Ya Hey, Ut Deo [C]Ya Hey Ya Hey -
Through the fire and through the flames, [D]you won't even say your name
[G]Only I am that I [C]am
 
But who could ever live that way?
-[D]-Ya hey Ya hey, Ut Deo [G]Ya Hey Ya Hey, Ut Deo [C]Ya Hey Ya Hey -
 
Verse:
[G]Oh,the motherland don't l[C]love you
The fatherland don't [D]love you
So why love anyt[G]anything?
 
 
[G]Oh, good God, the faithless, they don't [C]love you
The zealous hearts don't [D]love you
And that's not gonna [G]change
 
Pre-Chorus:
All the c[Bm]cameras and files, all the [Em]paranoid styles
All the [Am]tension and fear, of a [G]secret ca[D]career
And I c[Bm]can't help but feel, that you [Em]see the mistakes
But you let it [Am]go, Ya Hey, [G]Ya Hey, [D]Ya Hey
 
Chorus:
[C]Through the fire and through the flames

Through the fire and through the flames, [D]you won't even say your name
[G]Say I am that I a[C]am
 
But who could ever live that way?
-[D]-Ya hey Ya hey, Ut Deo [G]Ya Hey Ya Hey, Ut Deo [C]Ya Hey Ya Hey -
 
Bridge:
[G]Outside the tents, on the festival grounds
[C]As the air began to cool and the sun went down
[D]My soul swooned as I faintly heard the sound
Of you spinning Israelites[D7]Israelites into 19th Nervous Breakdown

Through the fire and through the flames, [D]you won't even say your name
[G]Say I am that I a[C]am
 
But who could ever live that way?
-[D]-Ya hey Ya hey, Ut Deo [G]Ya Hey Ya Hey, Ut Deo [C]Ya Hey Ya Hey -
