^GOh when will this war be over' ^CAnd the madness leaves the air ^GThis brick that's found between us ^CAnd the pulling of the hair

^FBut i^Gf there's a reason ^AmI don'^Gt need to know right now

And the light of a fading star Is what you were, is what you are Like the glow that christens the moon You shone too soon, you shone too soon Volunteers are soon forgotten And many more of us shall die The sick still feed the hungry And the last battle song has cried But if there's a reason I don't need to know right now And the light of a fading star Is what you were, is what you are Like the glow that christens the moon You shone too soon, you shone too soon

^AmOh a^Gnd ^CI always thought ^AmThat^G yo^Cu, you wanted me ^AmOh a^Gnd ^CI a^Flways thought some how ^FTha^Gt y^Amou, you wanted me

Ahhh, but if there's a reason I don't need to know right now 'Cause beyond the pale eyes' evening And the shadow of the cloud And the light of a fading star Is what you were, is what you are Like the glow that christens the moon You shone too soon, you shone too soon And the light of a fading star Is what you were, is what you are Like the glow that christens the moon You shone too soon, you shone too soon And the light of a fading star Is what you were, is what you are
