Les Miserables
ABC Cafe (Red and Black)
[Verse:] Dm F
(Enjolras) It is time for us all to decide who we are
Bb F
Do we fight for the right to a night at the opera now?
Dm F
Have you asked of yourselves what's the price you might pay?
Bb Am
Is it simply a game for rich young boys to play?
Gm G7 C
The colors of the world are changing day by day
[Chorus:] F Dm
(Enjolras) Red, the blood of angry men
Bb F
Black, the dark of ages past
F Dm
Red, a world about to dawn
Bb F
Black, the night that ends at last
[Verse:] Dm F
(Marius) Had you been there today you might know how it feels
Bb F
To be struck to the bone in a moment of breathless delight
Dm F
Had you been there today you might also have known
Bb Am
How the world may be changed in just one burst of light
Gm G7 C
And what was right seems wrong and what was wrong seems right
[Chorus:] F Dm
(Grantaire)Red,
(Marius) I feel my soul on fire
Bb F
Black,
My world if she's not there
F Dm
(All) Red,
It's the color of desire
Bb F
Black,
It's the color of despair
[Verse:] Gm
(Enjolras) Marius, you're no longer a child
Bb Eb
I do not doubt you mean it well
Bb F
But now there is a higher call
Gm
Who cares about your lonely soul?
Bb Eb
We strive towards a larger goal
Bb F7 Bb
Our little lives don't count at all
[Chorus:] F Dm
(All) Red, the blood of angry men
Bb F
Black, the dark of ages past
F Dm
Red, a world about to dawn
Bb F
Black, the night that ends at last
