[D] He heard a thousand [E] [D] mothers weep
For sons [Gbm] they'd never
[Em] find
[Gbm] The [D] [G]

[Fm] Go across [Bb] all the [Eb] sands of time
[Cm] Game of love, [Bb] just to buy
[G] Born [Cm]
mad, [Eb] a heart of stone

[B] A [E] shelf [Eb] split [D] history [C]
in two

[Abm] Thy [Am] filth is done
