One Tin Soldier chords

[VERSE]

[C]Listen children [G]to a story t[Am]hat was written [Em]long ago
[F]'Bout a kingdom [C]on a mountain, a[F]nd the valley [G]far below
[C]On the mountain [G]was a treasure b[Am]uried deep [Em]beneath a stone
[F]And the valley p[C]eople swore they'd [F]have it for their [C]very own.

[CHORUS]

[C]Go ahead and hate your n[Em]eighbor, [F]go ahead and cheat a f[G]riend
[C]Do it in the name of [Em]heaven, you can [F]justify it in the [G]end
There [C]won't be any trumpets [Em]blowing, [F]come the judgment d[C]ay
C* [F] [C]
On the bloody morning after - one tin soldier rides away.

[VERSE]

[C]So the people [G]of the valley s[Am]ent a message [Em]up the hill
[F]Asking for the b[C]uried treasure, [F]tons of gold for [G]which they'd kill
[C]Came an answer [G]from the mountain:[Am] "With our brothers[Em] we will share
[F]All the secrets [C]of our mountain, [F]all the riches [C]buried there.”

[CHORUS]

[C]Go ahead and hate your n[Em]eighbor, [F]go ahead and cheat a [G]friend
[C]Do it in the name of [Em]heaven, you can [F]justify it in the [G]end
There [C]won't be any trumpets [Em]blowing, [F]come the judgment d[C]ay
C* [F] [C]
On the bloody morning after - one tin soldier rides away.

[VERSE]

[C]Now the valley [G]cried with anger, [Am]mount your horses, [Em]draw your sword!
[F]And they killed the [C]mountain people, [F]so they got their [G]just reward
[C]Now they stand b[G]eside the treasure [Am]on the mountain [Em]dark and red
[F]Flipped the stone and lo[C]oked beneath it -
[F]"Peace on Earth" was [C]all it said.

[CHORUS]

[C]Go ahead and hate your n[Em]eighbor, [F]go ahead and cheat a f[G]riend
[C]Do it in the name of [Em]heaven, you can [F]justify it in the [G]end
[C]There won't be any trumpets [Em]blowing, [F]come the judgment d[C]ay
C* [F] [C]
On the bloody morning after - one tin soldier rides away.

[ENDING]

[C]Go ahead and love your n[Em]eighbor, [F]go ahead and love a f[G]riend
[C]Do it in the name of [Em]heaven, you can [F]justify it in the [G]end
There'll be [C]lots of trumpets [Em]blowing, [F]come the judgment [C]day
C* [F] [C]
On that sunny morning after - one tin soldier rides away.
