INTRO
Bsus2
VERSE 1
With all the grain of Babylon
To cultivate, To make us strong
And hidden here behind the walls
Are shoulders wide and timber on
Till the Asus2war came
Till the Bsus2war came
VERSE 2
A terrible autonomy
Is grafted onto you and me
A trust put in the governments
Who told their lies as heaven sent
Till the Asus2war came
Till the Bsus2war came
CHORUS
And the Gwar came with a Asus2curse and a caterwaul Bsus2
And the Gwar came with all the Asus2poise of a cannonball Bsus2
And they're Gpicking out our eyAes by Emcold and candleGlight
When the Gwar came
The Asus2war came hard Bsus2
VERSE 3
We made our oaths to Avalon
We'd not betray the soul lain on
The acres of hysteracy
To our own pangs of starvation
Asus2When the war came
Bsus2When the war came
CHORUS
And the Gwar came with a Asus2curse and a caterwaul Bsus2
And the Gwar came with all the Asus2poise of a cannonball Bsus2
And they're Gpicking out our eyAes by Emcold and candleGlight
When the Gwar came
Asus Bssu2
The war came hard
OUTRO
With all the grain of Babylon
With all the grain of Babylon
