^GMust it take a life for hateful eyes ^EmTo glisten once again ^CFive hundred years like Gelignite ^EmHave blown us all to ^Dhell ^GWhat savior rests while on his cross we die ^EmForgotten freedom burns ^CHas the Shepard led his lambs astray ^Emto the bigot and the ^Dgun

[Chorus]

^GI watch and stare as Rosin`s eyes ^EmTurn a darker shade of red ^CAnd the bullet with this sniper lie ^EmIn their bloody gutless ^Dcell ^GMust we starve on crumbs from long ago ^EmThrough these bars of men made steel ^CIs it a great or little thing we fought ^EmKnelt the conscience blessed to ^Dkill

[Chorus]

^CMust it take a life for ^Ghateful eyes ^CTo glisten once a^Dgain Cause we ^Gfind our^Cselves in the ^Emsame old mess Singin' ^Gdrunken ^Dlulla^Gbies

[Bridge]

Ah, but ^Cmaybe it`s the ^Dway we're ^Gtaught Or ^Cmaybe it`s the ^Dway we ^Gfought But a ^Csmile never ^Dgrins without ^Gtears to ^Cbegin For each ^Ckiss is a ^Dcry we all ^Glost Though ^Cnothing left to ^Ggain But for the ^Cbanshee that stole the ^Dgrave Cause we ^Gfind our^Cselves in the ^Emsame old mess Singin' ^Gdrunken ^Dlulla^Gbies

^GI sit in and dwell on faces past ^EmLike memories seem to fade ^CNo colour left but black and white ^EmAnd soon will all turn ^Dgrey ^GBut may these shadows rise to walk again ^EmWith lessons truly learnt ^CWhen the blossom flowers in each our hearts ^EmShall beat a new found ^Dflame

[Chorus]

^CMust it take a life for ^Ghateful eyes ^CTo glisten once a^Dgain Cause we ^Gfind our^Cselves in the ^Emsame old mess Singin' ^Gdrunken ^Dlulla^Gbies Cause we ^Gfind our^Cselves in the ^Emsame old mess Singin' ^Gdrunken ^Dlulla^Gbies Singin' ^Gdrunken ^Dlulla^Gbies
