CAPO on 4th fret

Intro: Am7Am7

Am7Am7               G+G       Am7Am7
Come you masters of war, you that build all the guns
    G+G        Am7Am7       G+G       Am7Am7
You that build the death planes, you that build all the bombs
    G+G      Am7Am7      G+G      Am7Am7
You that hide behind walls, you that hide behind desks
         C majorC      G+G        Am7Am7
I just want you to know I can see through your masks.


Am7Am7               G+G       Am7Am7
You that never done nothing, but build to destroy
G+G         Am7Am7      G+G       Am7Am7
You play with my world like it's your little toy
G+G        Am7Am7     G+G        Am7Am7
Put a gun in my hands and you hide from my eyes
          C majorC      G+G         Am7Am7
And you turn and run farther as the fast bullets fly.

Am7Am7          G+G       Am7Am7
Like Judas of old, you lie and deceive
Am7Am7           G+G          Am7Am7
A augmentedA world war can be won, you want me to believe
Am7Am7                G+G         Am7Am7
But I see through your eyes and I see through your brain
           C majorC     G+G         Am7Am7
Like I see through the water that runs down my drain.


Am7Am7                G+G      Am7Am7
You fasten all the triggers for the others to fire
     G+G      Am7Am7     G+G            Am7Am7
Then you set back and watch as the death count gets higher
  G+G      Am7Am7      G+G       Am7Am7
You hide in your mansion, while young people's blood
         C majorC       G+G         Am7Am7
Flows out of their bodies and is buried in the mud.


Am7Am7               G+G         Am7Am7
You've thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled
           G+G      Am7Am7
Fear to bring children into the world
             G+G      Am7Am7
For threatening my baby, unborn and unnamed
            C majorC     G+G         Am7Am7
Well you ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins.

Am7Am7         G+G      Am7Am7
How much do I know to talk out of turn
                 G+G        Am7Am7
You might say that I'm young, you might say I'm unlearned
                  G+G          Am7Am7
But there's one thing I know though I'm younger than you
         C majorC      G+G         Am7Am7
That even Jesus would never forgive what you do.


Am7Am7              G+G         Am7Am7
Let me ask you one question, is your money that good?
               G+G           Am7Am7
Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could?
                G+G         Am7Am7
I think you will find when your death takes its toll
         C majorC          G+G      Am7Am7
All the money you made will never buy back your soul.


Am7Am7               G+G         Am7Am7
And I hope that you die and your death will come soon
                G+G      Am7Am7
I will follow your casket in the pale afternoon
                            Am7Am7
And I'll watch while you're lowered, down to your deathbed
            C majorC        G+G        Am7Am7
And I'll stand over your grave to make sure that you're dead.
