Chorus: FC/G Was it bitter then,with our backs against the wall GC/G Were we better men,then we'd ever been before FC/G Say if she came again today,would you still answer to the call GC/G Tell the truth my friend,don't it matter anymore
Verse 1: FC/G We were simple men,by her side when she was born GC/G It was simple then,like the freedom when you fall FC/G We were smaller then you see,but soon we gathered like a storm GC/G They don't understand what that thunder meant at all
Verse 2: FC/G Was he crucified,was he done in by the law GC/G Are you satisfied that he'll never ride again FC/G Some people say he got away,they say he never died at all GC/G If that story's true,does it bother you my friend
