G Dsus2
Stephen the flags are half mast at the station
Cadd9 G
There's a cloud hanging over this town
G Dsus2
The wind blows apology the sun looks ashamed
Cadd9 Bm7
As he hides out behind Portadown
C Dsus2
And out there are children still raised on old anger
G C
To believe there's a reason to fight
G Dsus2 Cadd9 G
But a piece of land's only a piece of land
Cadd9 Dsus2 Em
And you will not come home tonight
G Dsus2
Stephen the uniform visitors
Cadd9 G
Unexpectedly late yesterday
G Dsus2
I opened the door to a man and a woman
Cadd9 Bm7
Oh I knew what they'd come here to say
C Dsus2
I've never seen any darkness so deep
G C
As the moment when I clicked off the light
G Dsus2 Cadd9 G
A piece of land's only a piece of land
Cadd9 Dsus2 Em
And you will not come home tonight
Am C Em
Oh...
Am C Em
Oh...
G Dsus2
Stephen the paper's been filled with your picture
Cadd9 G
It seems the whole world knows your name
G Dsus2
And would you believe there was Martin McGuinness
Cadd9 Bm7
Out condemning these bastards to blame
C Dsus2
Oh I've never seen so much orange and green
G C
Come together on a thin strip of white
G Dsus2 Cadd9 G
Still a piece of land's only a piece of land
Cadd9 Dsus2 Em
And you will not come home tonight
G Dsus2 Cadd9 G
A piece of land's only a piece of land
Cadd9 Dsus2 G
And you will not come home tonight
