C majorC      Fmaj7Fmaj7      Gsus2Gsus2     C majorC
Oh, no cannonball did fly, no rifles cut us down
C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7      Gsus2Gsus2      C majorC
No bombs fell from the sky, no blood soaked the ground
  C majorC        Fmaj7Fmaj7      Gsus2Gsus2      C majorC
No powder flash blinded the eye, no deathly thunder sound
  C majorC          Fmaj7Fmaj7           Gsus2Gsus2      C majorC
But just as sure as the hand of God, they brought death to my hometown

No shells ripped the evening sky, no cities burning down
     C majorC           Fmaj7Fmaj7       Gsus2Gsus2     C majorC
No armies stormed the shores for which we'd die no dictators were crowned
C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7     Gsus2Gsus2     C majorC
I awoke from a quiet night, I never heard a sound
 C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7          Gsus2Gsus2      C majorC
Marauders raided in the dark and brought death to my hometown, boys
C majorC    Gsus2Gsus2 C majorC
Death to my hometown

    FF               C majorC
They destroyed our families' factories and they took our homes
   FF                 C majorC          G+G
They left our bodies on the plains, the vultures picked our bones


  C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7     Gsus2Gsus2        C majorC
So listen up, my sonny boy, be ready for when they come
C majorC        Fmaj7Fmaj7    Gsus2Gsus2     C majorC
For they'll be returning sure as the rising sun
  C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7      Gsus2Gsus2        C majorC
Now get yourself a song to sing and sing it 'til you're done

   FF    C majorC    FF    C majorC
Yeah, sing it hard and sing it well
     FF   C majorC   FF      C majorC
Send the robber barons straight to hell
  FF   C majorC      FF   C majorC
The greedy thieves who came around
  FF    C majorC       FF     C majorC
And ate the flesh of everything they found
   FF      C majorC   FF    C majorC
Whose crimes have gone unpunished now
  FF    C majorC     FF    C majorC
Who walk the streets as free men now

C majorC        C majorC    Gsus2Gsus2  C majorC
Ah, they brought death to our hometown, boys
C majorC    Gsus2Gsus2  C majorC
Death to our hometown, boys
C majorC    Gsus2Gsus2  C majorC
Death to our hometown, boys
C majorC    Gsus2Gsus2  C majorC
Death to our hometown, whoa!
