Verse 1:
      D5          C5
We're living underneath 
    A5    D5
the land of sorrow
G5             F5          A5   A5
I can hear the bombs rain down
    D5         C5
And how do I explain 
        A5 D5
there's no tomorrow
G5           F5      A5    A5
I can hardly make a sound


Chorus 1:
G5 - D5 - Bb5 - F-

G5
  Dead silence
D5
  I think we can't
           Bb5
escape Til death
Do us part
       A5  A5
In the end


Verse 2:
        D5
They're marching
       C5
up the main street
A5  D5
As my heart beats
G5            F5         A5   A5
Louder then machine gun fire
    D5
The sound of all the
C5      A5      D5
sirens sing like violins
G5           F5       A5   A5
Rattling the coil of wire
  D5                 C5
I heard the soldiers say
       A5          D5
"don't let them get away"
    G5            F5
But I could not escape
      A5              A5
their bullets and grenades
  D5          C5
A casualty of war
  A5         D5
A victim of mistake
 G5           F5        C5   D5
Another widow has been made


Chorus 2:
G5
  Dead silence
D5
  Will come to
rescue me
Bb5
  When violence
F5
  Has took this 
world away
G5
  Dead silence
D5
  I think we
can't escape
    Bb5
Til death
Do us part
       A5  A5
In the end


Chorus 3:
G5
  Dead silence
D5
  Will come to
rescue me
Bb5
  When violence
F5
  Has took this 
world away
G5
  Dead silence
D5
  No time to be afraid
   Bb5
My love I will
         A5   A5
see You again

Bridge:
    D5            A5
Fly away like the wind
     Bb5                  F5
Some things God can't forgive
       G5         D5
Why is war just a fight
          Bb5       A5
While the innocent die
         D5       A5
They can tear us apart
           Bb5           F5
I'll still live in your heart
         G5          D5
If your spirit gives up
         Bb5          A5   Bb5 - F5 - Bb5 - F5
Don't surrender your love
        Bb5            F5
And the world will survive
       Bb5           F5
If we stand side by side
        Bb5          F5
One day hope will arrive
      Bb5           A5
Now I must say goodbye


(Repeat Chorus 2)
