Verse:
E minorEm Am9Am9
The grass was as green as it always was that sinister day

The blackbirds sang their songs as they always did that black-letter day
Am9Am9 E minorEm
We passed the great gate for the very last time
Am9Am9
I did not look back, I knew we'd stay
E minorEm Em6Em6 Em6Em6 G+G
I knew they they would not let us go leave the death strip
E minorEm Em6Em6
I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement

Suffering from the crushing weight
