Verse 1
Gm Bb F Gm
Lost am I in my memories
Gm Bb F Gm
of my forefathers' legacy
Gm Bb F Gm
I am one of you, you are one of me
Gm Bb F Gm
Why don't we set the people free
Gm Bb F Gm
How I grieve to see fulfillment of prophecy
Gm Bb F Gm
Naive of me to think things could change
Gm Bb F Gm
While man remain the same
Gm Bb F Gm
so war will be for me everyday
Gm Bb F Gm
No peace no peace for the children of Israel
Gm Bb F Gm
Gaza cries all the tears from her eyes
Gm Bb F Gm
Will there be no peace for the children of Palestine

Who will take the blame for the blood of my children
Gm Bb F Gm
To who does vengeance belong to no one no one

The only answer is to live as one
Bb F Gm
And justice will come for my sons
Bb F Gm
and justice will come for my sons
