INTRO: D
[D]Read about the sorry way he done somebody's daughter
[A]Chained to a heavy thing and [D]threw her in the water
And she [D]sank into the darkness with their baby son inside her
[A]A little piece of truth and beauty [D]died
[D]Burnin' up the atmosphere and cuttin' down the trees
The [A]billion dollar bombin' of a [D]nation on its knees
[D]Anyone not marchin' to their tune they call it treason
[A]Everyone says God is on his [D]side
See the [D]lightnin' hear the [G]cries
Of the [A]wounded of a world in holy [D]war
Mortal thunder from the [G]skies
Killin' [A]everything they say they're fightin [D]for
Broken [D]babies, broken [G]homes
Broken[A] hearted people dyin' e[D]veryday
How'd this happen, what went [G]wrong
Don't blame [A]God I swear to God I heard Him [D]say
"Not in [D]My name, not on [G]My ground
I want [A]nothin' but the endin' of the [D]war
No more killin' or it's [G]over
And the [A]Mystery won't matter [D]anymore"
Broken [D]dreamers, broken [G]rules
Broken[A] hearted people just like me and[D] you
We are children of the [G]stars
Don't blame [A]God I swear to God He's cryin' [D]too
"Not in [D]My name, not on My [G]ground
I want [A]nothin' but the endin' of the [D]war
No more killin', or it's [G]over
And the [A]Mystery won't matter [D]anymore"
