CAPO on 4th fret
[Intro]
Am7
[Verse 1]
Am7 G Am7
Come you masters of war, you that build all the guns
G Am7 G Am7
You that build the death planes, you that build all the bombs
G Am7 G Am7
You that hide behind walls, you that hide behind desks
C G Am7
I just want you to know I can see through your masks.
[Verse 2]
Am7 G Am7
You that never done nothing, but build to destroy
G Am7 G Am7
You play with my world like it's your little toy
G Am7 G Am7
Put a gun in my hands and you hide from my eyes
C G Am7
And you turn and run farther as the fast bullets fly.
[Verse 3]
Am7 G Am7
Like Judas of old, you lie and deceive
Am7 G Am7
A world war can be won, you want me to believe
Am7 G Am7
But I see through your eyes and I see through your brain
C G Am7
Like I see through the water that runs down my drain.
[Verse 4]
Am7 G Am7
You fasten all the triggers for the others to fire
G Am7 G Am7
Then you set back and watch as the death count gets higher
G Am7 G Am7
You hide in your mansion, while young people's blood
C G Am7
Flows out of their bodies and is buried in the mud.
[Verse 5]
Am7 G Am7
You've thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled
G Am7
Fear to bring children into the world
G Am7
For threatening my baby, unborn and unnamed
C G Am7
Well you ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins.
[Verse 6]
Am7 G Am7
How much do I know to talk out of turn
G Am7
You might say that I'm young, you might say I'm unlearned
G Am7
But there's one thing I know though I'm younger than you
C G Am7
That even Jesus would never forgive what you do.
[Verse 7]
Am7 G Am7
Let me ask you one question, is your money that good?
G Am7
Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could?
G Am7
I think you will find when your death takes its toll
C G Am7
All the money you made will never buy back your soul.
[Verse 8]
Am7 G Am7
And I hope that you die and your death will come soon
G Am7
I will follow your casket in the pale afternoon
Am7
And I'll watch while you're lowered, down to your deathbed
C G Am7
And I'll stand over your grave to make sure that you're dead.
