Start Jamming...
[D] He heard a thousand [E] [D] mothers weep
For sons [Gbm] they'd never
[Em] find
[Gbm] The [D] [G]
pain [A] of dads [Gbm] who [Gm] cannot sleep
Then [D] he bowed his head and [Gm] died
[D] He saw the brokenness of war
The [Gbm] tears of last [Am] goodbye
[Em]
[G] He saw [A]
all [Gm] torn apart
Then [A] he bowed his head [D] and died
He [Dm] felt [Am] the weight [Bb] of [A] prisoners' chains
[Dm] He heard [A] their cries [Dm] at [Am] night
[G] He felt [Am]
[Gbm] [Gm] every whim
[D] Then he bowed his head [A] [D] and died
[Eb] He felt the pain [Gm] of broken homes

cry
[Eb] [Ab] Oh, he saw [Bbm] despair [Gm] and [Abm] hopelessness
Then [Bb] he bowed his head [Eb] and died
[Cm] For me, [Gm] then, too
[Ab] Go, go, [Eb] go to
[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
A [F] book to [Ab] die, [Bb] [Gbm] yes, to die
[B] A [E] shelf [Eb] split [D] history [C]
in two
And [Bb] it echoed [Bm]
[Abm] the sky
[Bm] [A] Oh, the father, the [Bm] father heard
[Abm] Thy [Am] filth is done
Then [E] he bowed [Ab] his head [Dbm] and died
