Must it take a life for hateful eyes
Em
To glisten once again

Five hundred years like Gelignite

Have blown us all to hell (to hell!)

What savior rests while on his cross we die

Forgotten freedom burns

to the bigot and the gun

To glisten once again
G C G Em
Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
G D G
Singin' drunken lullabies
G
I watch and stare as Rosin`s eyes
Em
Turn a darker shade of red
C
And the bullet with this sniper lie
Em D
In their bloody gutless cell

Must we starve on crumbs from long ago
Em
Through these bars of men made steel

Knelt the conscience blessed to kill

But a smile never grins without tears to begin

Though nothing left to gain

But for the banshee that stole the grave

I sit in and dwell on faces past
Em
Like memories seem to fade
C
No color left but black and white
Em D
And soon will all turn grey
G
But may these shadows rise to walk again
Em
With lessons truly learnt
C
When the blossom flowers in each our hearts
Em D
Shall beat a new found flame (the flame!)
