    History was the cruel judge of

 overconfidence,

Am               G               
    back in the days of "mission

Am                 G        
    Thousands of bodies in the 
      Am
ground,
C                    G      
    brought home in boxes to a 
             Am
trumpet's sound.
Am          C         D         
    No one sees them coming home
       F
 that way,
Am             G              F    E
    thousands buried in the ground.

Am                  G            
    Thousands of children scarred
       Am
 for life,
C                G       
    millions of tears for a 
             Am
soldier's wife.
Am                 C        
    Both sides are losing now, 
    D                F
Heaven takes them in,
Am                G              
    thousands of children scarred
      F   E
 for life.

Am              G                 
    We had a chance to change our 
 Am
mind,
C                G                
    but somehow wisdom was hard to
 Am
 find.
Am                 C              
    We went with what we knew and 
 D               F
now we can't go back,
Am                G              
    but we had a chance to change
      F   E
 our mind.
