no sugar on the table but the people stay sweet

I've been to the third world they've got nothing but hope
Ami G
through the starving and dying sometimes somehow they cope
Ami C G
it was a revelation - a revelation - a revelation to me

I've been to the u.s. promised land of the free
Ami G
with the workless and homeless begging on every street
Ami C G
it was a revelation - a revelation - a revelation to me
D G Emi A
revelation, it was a revelation
G C
and right here I an Europe far as can be seen
Ami G
butter mountains and wine lakes that much food it's obscene

it was a revelation - a revelation - a revelation to me
