There's a moment in the mornings
When [D]
[C] the birds refuse to sing
[G]
When the wind blows in its cargo
And [D]
[C] the eyes [G] begin to sting
And you can't see these Elysian fields
[D]
[C] And all the bodies [G] on the ground
So you grope the dead for souvenirs
That [D]
[C] are lying all around
[G] Lay [C] your head down [G] on my [C] pillow
And [G] show me heaven
Lay [C] your head down on [G] my [C] pillow
[Em] And show [G] me heaven
I killed a little boy today
I [C] put a bayonet in his breast
They
[G] said I was a hero
And [C] pinned a medal on my chest
But [G] I will not kill another
For [C] now I know it to be wrong
[G] That young man had a mother
And [C] for her I must be strong
So lift your skirt up a little higher
And show [G] me heaven
Lift [C] your skirt up a little higher
And [G] show me heaven
In the morning they'll be waiting
And [C] before the day is done
I [G] will make my peace with Jesus
I [C] will walk towards the sun
And [G] they'll take me to the bloodied wall
Where [D]
[C] the ones before me fell
And [G] I'll go to meet my old friends
Yes, [C] and my enemies as well
So put your sweet lips against my body
And show [G] me heaven
Put [C] your sweet lips against my body
And show [G] me heaven
[C] Show me heaven
[G] Show
[C] me heaven
