Introduction:
Dm A# F
A young lady leaves her mother
F C
With no one to love her
A# F Dm
To protect her from the world
A# F
And I have seen the monsters
C
That will haunt her
A# F
Thatll tear her all apart
Dm C F
And at her gravestone
A# Dm
We can remember
C
Just where we were
F A#
When we knew she would go
Dm C F A#
And I still remember the day that we left her
Dm C A#
And thats when she said that she knows
A#m
How it goes
And we sang
A# Dm
Your day will come
A# Dm
Your day will come
A# Dm A
Your day will come
A# Dm A
And no matter what they say
A# Dm G
It wont matter if you pray or if you sin
G A A#
Cause in the end
Dm
Its all the same
Dm A# F
Young man becomes a soldier
C
And he isnt much older
A# F Dm
Than a boy and thats a shame
A# F
They will lead him into battle
C A# F
And hand him a medal when he comes home rearranged
Dm
I have to say so
F
Of the man with the halo
Dm
He will obey
F A#
He will fall into place
Dm C F A#
Remember buy ribbons but never forgive them
Dm C A#
Shoulder the bulk of the blame
A#m
What a shame
And we sing
A# Dm
Your day will come
A# Dm
Your day will come
A# Dm A
Your day will come
A# Dm A
And no matter what they say
A# Dm G
It wont matter if you pray or if you sin
G A A#
Cause in the end
Dm
Its all the same
Dm A# F
If I only had a dollar
C
For every horror
A# F
That befalls my fellow man
Dm A# F
Id never work another hour
C
But Id grow sour
A# F
From the guilt and bitterness
Dm C F
The luck of the draw will
A#
Determine the fallen
Dm C F A#
And everyone else will relax and move on
Dm C F
But what will you do when
A#
They come looking for you friend?
Dm C A#
I hope that youre brave, and youre strong
A#m
Through it all
And we'll sing
A# Dm
Your day will come
A# Dm A
Your day will come
A# Dm A
And no matter what they say
A# Dm G
It wont matter if you pray or if you sin
G A A#
Cause in the end
