E5    Bb5       G5       D5 
A waking world of innocence 
   E5         Bb5         G5   D5 
So grave those first born cries 
     D#5     C5     D#5          C5 
When life begins with needles and pins 
   E5       Bb5         G5    D5 
It ends with swords and knives 
   E5    Bb5      G5      D5 
Oh danger man, oh danger man 
     E5        Bb5     G5   D5 
Your blade fits like a glove 
     D#5        C5 
When forged in steel 
     D#5     C5 
Time cannot heal 
     E5       Bb5      G5  D5 
That blood red bond of love 


   D#5                         C5 
In times of trouble you're an open book 
         D#5            C5 
With the change in the way you look 
         E5            Bb5             G5         D5 
And it's sad love's not enough to make things better 

(instrumental) 


Turn the tables, we'll burn the fables 
Lies beneath the visions and daydreams 
Fooled by now, we mystify the past 
Like a dream , like it never happened 

When life begins with needles and pins 
it ends with Swords and Knives 
God save those born to die
