FC/G
Was it bitter then, with our backs against the wall
GC/G
Were we better men, then we'd ever been before
FC/G
Say if she came again today, would you still answer to the call
GC/G
Tell the truth my friend, don't it matter anymore
VerseFC/G
We were simple men, by her side when she was born
GC/G
It was simple then, like the freedom when you fall
FC/G
We were smaller then you see, but soon we gathered like a storm
GC/G
They don't understand what that thunder meant at all
VerseFC/G
Was he crucified, was he done in by the law
GC/G
Are you satisfied that he'll never ride again
FC/G
Some people say he got away, they say he never died at all
GC/G
If that story's true, does it bother you my friend
ChorusFC/G
Was it bitter then, with our backs against the wall
GC/G
Were we better men, then we'd ever been before
FC/G
Say if she came again today, would you still answer to the call
GC/G
Tell the truth my friend, don't it matter anymore
