Ghost Mice - Germany

Back in ^GWorld War Two, the ^Embombs kept dropping, this whole ^Ccity was smashed to the ^Gground. And the ^Gorders were given to ^Emdestroy everything, even to ^Cbring that beautiful cat^Ghedral down.

But the ^Ambest bomber pilots, ^Dwell, they all tried it but their ^Gaim was never ^Ctrue. ^AmAs if the work of God or ^Ddivine protection, or could the ^Gmen just not do what they were ^Cordered to do. Could they not ^Gdo what they were ^Dordered to ^Cdo.

^GToday it still stands like a ^Emgiant tombstone, a ^Cmonument to a time long ^Ggone. To the ^Gold lady beggars with their ^Emfaces to the ground, it's ^Ctall arch doorways are ^Gright where they belong.

And oh, ^AmHitler, he would have been ^Dpissed I guess, but I'm ^Gglad that the good guys ^Cmissed. No ^Ammatter what you believe or how you ^Dfeel about churches, let me ^Gtell you, you really wanna ^Csee this. You'll be ^Gthankful those ^Dbombs didn't ^Ghit.

We went ^Gsouth down the ^Driver to where the ^CRhine and the Basel ^Gmeet. We ^Gstood on that small triangle of ^Dground where this ^Ccountry was founded on our ^Gown two feet.

And ^Amon the way we learned that ^Dcastles are a lot smaller in real^G life then they are in the fairy^C tales. But ^Amthat realization didn't ^Dstop our fascination as we ^Gexplored the secret tunnels behind the ^Csafety rails. As we hopped ^Gover those ^Dsafety ^Grails...

^GWe headed East and we ^Dcrossed the border, the ^Cborder that was no longer ^Gthere. And alt^Ghough the fences and walls are ^Dlong gone, the ^Cweight of their ghosts hung ^Gheavy in the air. And the ^Ambuildings all had different looks on their ^Dfaces, they were ^Gstern and strong and ^Cstout. Going ^Am80 on the Audabon will really take you ^Dplaces, if you ^Gwanna learn history get outta your ^Chouse. If you ^Gwanna learn, get ^Doutta your ^Ghouse

^GAnd all of the statues of ^DDresden looked ^Cmean and cold and ^Gangry. ^GThey've all got black ^Dfaces that say, ^C"You can never ^Gkill me!" And our ^Ambus drove by ^DSlaughterhouse 5 on the ^Gway to our camp^Cground. We ^Amended up sleeping in a ^Dfarmer's field cause ^Gtwo years ago the ^Cplace was shut down. ^AmWe went to the forest and ^Dcamped a few nights and ^Gthen we said good^Cbye To ^Amall the bakeries and the ^Dnice young bees that would ^Galways give us ^Crides.

And the ^Ctrain, the ^Dtrain, took us ^Gaway!
