[Verse]
    F#               A
He rode in town on a white horse
     B              F#
With nothing in his hands
    F#                 A
He came to gather his people
               B                F#
And take them to their promised land
        F#                          A
When he came he knew there would be bloodshed
             B                 F#
But still no violence made his plans
   F#                A
He came to fight in a battle
        B
With no guns or money
D              C#      F#   A  B
  But with his empty hands
D              C#      F#   A  B
  But with his empty hands
D              C#      F#   A  B
  But with his empty hands
D              C#      F#
  But with his empty hands

[Verse]
      F#                      A
They said hey boy what you lookin'at
        B                F#
As they eyed his dreaded mane
    F#                  A
He said my father has sent me
     B              F#
I've come back to reclaim
     F#                            A
The children whose hearts Were so whole and pure
         B                 F#
Now it's you who'll die in pain
        F#                   A
So they lynched the man Who fooled the word
            B
And all the children gathered
D              C#      F#   A  B
  But with his empty hands
D              C#      F#   A  B
  But with his empty hands
