One Tin Soldier Chords & Lyrics - Misc Unsigned Bands - The Original Caste

[C]Listen children [G]to a story, [Am]that was written [Em]long ago..
a[F]bout a kingdom, [C]on a mountain, [F]and the valley [G]folk below.
[C]On the mountian [G]was a treasure, [Am]buried deep be[Em]neath a stone..
[F]And the valley [C]people swore, they'd [F]have it for their [G]very [C]own.

[CHORUS]
[C]Go ahead and hate your [Em]neighbor, [F]go ahead and cheat a [C]friend.
[C]Do it in the name of [Em]Heaven, you can [F]justify it in the [C]end.
[C]There won't be any trumpets [Em]blowing, [F]come the Judgement [C]Day..
[C]On the bloody morning [F]after..one tin soldier rides a[C]way.

#2.
[C]So, the people [G]of the valley, [Am]sent a message [Em]up the hill..
[F]asking for the [C]buried treasure, [F]tons of gold for [G]which they'd kill.
[C]Came an answer [G]from the kingdom, '[Am]With our brothers [Em]we will share,
[F]all the secrets [C]of our mountain..[F]all the riches [G]buried [C]there.'

#3.
[C#]Now the valley [G#]cried in anger, '[A#m]Mount your horses, [Fm]draw your sword!'
[F#]And they killed the [C#]mountain people, [F#]sure they'd won their [G#]just reward.
[C#]Now they stood be[G#]side the treasure, [A#m]on the mountain [Fm]dark and red..
[F#]turned the stone and [C#]looked beneath it..'[F#]Peace on Earth,' was [G#]all it [C#]said.

[CHORUS]
[C#]Go ahead and hate your [Fm]neighbor, [F#]go ahead and cheat a [C#]friend.
[C#]Do it in the name of [Fm]Heaven, you can [F#]justify it in the [C#]end.
[C#]There won't be any trumpets [Fm]blowing, [F#]come the Judgement [C#]Day..
[C#]On the bloody morning [F#]after..one tin soldier rides a[C#]way.

[OUTRO]
[C#]Go ahead and hate your [Fm]neighbor, [F#]go ahead and cheat a [C#]friend.
[C#]Do it in the name of [Fm]Heaven, you can [F#]justify it in the [C#]end.
[C#]There won't be any trumpets [Fm]blowing, [F#]come the Judgement [C#]Day..
[C#]On the bloody morning [F#]after..one tin soldier rides a[C#]way.
