We sent them all across the ocean

This land was once a home
C#5 C#5
Of friends and family

And for what I cannot tell
A5 E5
Put down your banners and flowers

Your country, just lines on a map

The paper cities burning

The ashes fell like rain

But when the fire was over
G#m1
Everything had changed

The people come together

Reminds us we're the same

Your country, just lines on a map

They're' drawn up, but they don't last mmmh mmmh mmh
