Come you [F] masters of war, you that build the big guns, you that build the death planes,
all the bombs, you that hide behind walls, you that hide behind desks,
I just want you to know I can see through your masks.
You that never done [Fm] nothing but build to destroy, you play [F] with my world like it's your little [Fm] toy,
you put a gun in my hand and [Bb] you hide from [F] my eyes,
turn [C] and run farther when [F] the fast bullets fly,
like Judas of [Fm] old, you lie and deceive, a world war can be won, [F] you want me to believe,
but I see through [Fm] your eyes [F] and I see through your [Fm] brain,
all the bombs, you that hide behind walls, you that hide behind desks,
I just want you to know I can see through your masks.
You that never done [Fm] nothing but build to destroy, you play [F] with my world like it's your little [Fm] toy,
you put a gun in my hand and [Bb] you hide from [F] my eyes,
turn [C] and run farther when [F] the fast bullets fly,
like Judas of [Fm] old, you lie and deceive, a world war can be won, [F] you want me to believe,
but I see through [Fm] your eyes [F] and I see through your [Fm] brain,
