I Had No Right chords

CAPO: 5th Fret

INTRO: [G]

God of the poor man, this is how the day began
[D]Eight co-defendants, I, Daniel [G]Berrigan [Am]
Oh, and [F]only a layman’[C]s batch of Napalm[Am]
We pulled the [F]draft files out
We [Dm]burned them in the [G]parking lot
[F]Better the files than the [C]bodies of children [Em]

[CHORUS]
I had no [C]right, but for the [Am]love of you_[D]__ [G]
I had no [C]right, but for the [Am]love of you_[D]__

[G]Many roads led here, walked with the suffering
[D]Tom in Guatemala, Phillip in New [G]Orle[Am]ans
Oh, it’s [F]a long road fro[C]m law to justice [Am]
I went to [F]Vietnam
I [Dm]went for peace, they [G]dropped their bombs
[F]Right where my government [C]knew I would be [Em]

[CHORUS]
I had no [C]right, but for the [Am]love of you_[D]__ [G]
I had no [C]right, but for the [Am]love of you_[D]__ [Am]

[BRIDGE]
And all my [F]country saw [Am]
Were priests who [F]broke the law

[G]First it was a question, then it was a mission
[D]How to be American, how to be a [G]Christi[Am]an
Oh, if the [F]law is their cross and the [C]cross is burning [Em]

[CHORUS]
Hey hey hey [C]hey he hey, the [Am]love of you_[D]__ [G]
Hey hey hey [C]hey he hey, the [Am]love of you_[D]__

[G]God of the just, I’ll never win a peace prize
[D]Falling like Jesus, now let the [G]jury [Am]rise
Oh, it’[F]s all of us versu[C]s all that paper[Am]
They [F]took the only way they [Dm]know, who is on [G]trial today
De[F]liver us unto each [C]other, I pray [Em]

[CHORUS]
I had no [C]right, but for the [Am]love of you_[D]__ [G]
And every [C]trial I stood, I [Am]stood for you_[D]__

[G]Eyes on the trial
