Must it take a life for hateful eyes Em To glisten once again C Five hundred years like Gelignite Em D Have blown us all to hell G What savior rests while on his cross we die Em Forgotten freedom burns C Has the Shepard led his lambs astray Em D To the bigot and the gun [Chorus] C G Must it take a life for hateful eyes C D To glisten once again G C Bm Em Cause we find ourselves in the same old

I watch and stare as Rosin's eyes Em Turn a darker shade of red C And the bullet with this sniper lie Em D In their bloody gutless cell G Must we starve on crumbs from long ago Em Through bars these men made steel C Is it a great or little thing we fought Em D Knelt the conscience blessed to kill [Chorus] C G Must it take a life for hateful eyes C D To glisten once again G C Bm Em Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess G D G Singin drunken lullabies [Bridge] C D G Ah, but maybe it's the way we're taught C D G Or maybe it's the way we fought C D G C But a smile never grins without tears to begin D G For each kiss is a cry we all lost C G Though nothing is left to gain C D But for the banshee that stole the grave G C E Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess G D G Singin drunken

Bm Em G D G [Verse 3] G I sit in and dwell on faces past Em Like memories seem to fade C No color left but black and white Em D And soon will all turn grey G But may these shadows rise to walk again Em With lessons truly learnt C When the blossom flowers in each our hearts Em D Shall beat a new found flame [Chorus] C G Must it take a life for hateful eyes C D To glisten once again G C Bm Em Cause
