CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] [D] [C] [A] (4x)
[VERSE 1]
Down the hall their [C]voices ring, their [D]feet are on the [A]run
Phantoms on a [C]winter sky, to[D]gether they do [E]come
[Am]Faded lips and [D]eyes of blue, they're [G]carried in the [Cmaj7]wind
Their [A]laughter filled the [C]countryside but [D]they'll not laugh a[E]gain
[INTERLUDE:] [D] [C] [A] [D] [C] [A]
[VERSE 2]
All their games are [C]ended now, their [D]voices have been [A]stilled
Their fathers built the [C]tools of war by [D]which they all were [E]killed
Their [Am]mothers made the [D]uniforms showing [G]which side they were [Cmaj7]on
And the [A]young boys were the [C]middle men for the [D]guns to prey u[E]pon
[INTERLUDE:] [D] [C] [A] [D] [C] [A]
[VERSE 3]
You've seen the fires [C]in the night, watched the [D]devil as he [A]smiled
You've heard a mothers [C]mournful cry as she [D]searches for her [E]child
You've [Am]seen the lines of [D]refugees, the [G]faces of des[Cmaj7]pair
And [A]wondered at the [C]wise men who [D]never seem to [E]care
[INTERLUDE:] [D] [C] [A] [D] [C] [A]
[VERSE 4]
Goodbye you lost [C]children, god [D]speed you on your [A]way
Your little beds are [C]empty now, your [D]toys are put a[E]way
Your [Am]mother sings a [D]lullaby as she [G]gazes at the [Cmaj7]floor
Your [A]father builds more [C]weapons and [D]marches out once [E]more
[INTERLUDE:] [D] [C] [A] [D] [C] [A] [D] [C] [A]
[VERSE 5]
Down the hall their [C]voices ring, their [D]feet are on the [A]run
Phantoms on a [C]winter sky, to[D]gether they do [E]come
[Am]Faded lips and [D]eyes of blue, they're [G]carried in the [Cmaj7]wind
Their [A]laughter filled the [C]countryside but [D]they'll not laugh a[E]gain
