Am7
Verse 1
Am7                              G              Am7     
Come you masters of war, you that build all the guns
        G                Am7             G             Am7         
You that build the death planes, you that build all the bombs
        G            Am7            G            Am7         
You that hide behind walls, you that hide behind desks
                  C           G               Am7         
I just want you to know I can see through your masks.
Verse 2
Am7                             G              Am7     
You that never done nothing, but build to destroy
G                 Am7           G             Am7                 
You play with my world like it's your little toy
G                Am7         G               Am7                                                            
Put a gun in my hands and you hide from my eyes
                    C           G                 Am7
And you turn and run farther as the fast bullets fly.
Verse 3
Am7                   G             Am7               
Like Judas of old, you lie and deceive
Am7                      G                   Am7  
A world war can be won, you want me to believe
Am7                                G                  Am7
But I see through your eyes and I see through your brain
                      C          G                  Am7            
Like I see through the water that runs down my drain.
Verse 4
Am7                                G            Am7       
You fasten all the triggers for the others to fire
         G            Am7         G                       Am7                                
Then you set back and watch as the death count gets higher
    G            Am7            G              Am7
You hide in your mansion, while young people's blood
                  C             G                 Am7   
Flows out of their bodies and is buried in the mud.
Verse 5
Am7                              G                 Am7  
You've thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled
                      G           Am7           
Fear to bring children into the world
                         G            Am7  
For threatening my baby, unborn and unnamed
                        C          G                  Am7   
Well you ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins.
Verse 6
Am7                  G            Am7        
How much do I know to talk out of turn
                                 G                Am7  
You might say that I'm young, you might say I'm unlearned
                                    G                   Am7  
But there's one thing I know though I'm younger than you
                  C           G                 Am7   
That even Jesus would never forgive what you do.
Verse 7
Am7                            G                 Am7       
Let me ask you one question, is your money that good?
                              G                     Am7      
Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could?
                               G                 Am7      
I think you will find when your death takes its toll
                 C                   G            Am7   
All the money you made will never buy back your soul.
Verse 8
Am7                             G                 Am7   
And I hope that you die and your death will come soon
                                G            Am7   
I will follow your casket in the pale afternoon
                                                       Am7   
And I'll watch while you're lowered, down to your deathbed
                        C               G                Am7   
And I'll stand over your grave to make sure that you're dead.
