Verse: 
F             Am 
  The sky has no end tonight 
Bb                       C 
 Clear view beyond the stars 

F                 Am 
  Daylight in the early dawn 
Bb                        C 
  There's no-one left unscarred 

Dm               Am 
  Sand is drying up the tears 
 Bb                          C 
Burnt shells soaking up the sun 

              F 
The generals laughing  
         Bb 
With no fear 
               F           Bb  F 
Because their work is done 


Verse: 
 F          Am  
Liquid gold was in their sights 
Bb                       C 
Paid with blood by infantry 

F                Am 
  Giant statues ripped and torn 
Bb                         C 
All engineered so brilliantly 

Dm                    Am 
  Back home it's the Wild West 
Bb                          C 
Children sleeping in their beds 

       F 
Grown men  
                 Bb 
That passed the test 
                    F   Bb 
Now free to go and wed 

 
 F                    Bb 
I'm through with the fighting  
         F      A       Dm 
All the terror and the pain 
               F 
I've seen the lightning 
          Bb 
Felt the thunder  
         C   C 
And the rain 

 F                      Bb      
The silver birds come screaming 
           F           A          Dm 
Painting blood right through the skies 
         Bb 
Still I worry,  
       C 
And I wonder 
        F   Bb  F  Bb  F 
Wonder why 



Verse: 
 F                Am 
They tell us it's O-K to kill 
Bb                            C 
  They're just vermin in the sand 

F                   Am 
  Don't worry 'bout the blood you spill 
           Bb                C 
You'll be forgiven by God's hand 

Dm               Am 
  Images etched behind their eyes 
Bb                  C 
  Will never fade away 

  F                          Bb 
Eternal buildings turned to dust 
             F   Bb 
In just one day 

 
 F                    Bb 
I'm through with the fighting  
         F      A       Dm 
All the terror and the pain 
               F 
I've seen the lightning 
          Bb 
Felt the thunder  
         C   C 
And the rain 

 F                      Bb      
The silver birds come screaming 
           F           A          Dm 
Painting blood right through the skies 
         Bb 
Still I worry,  
       C 
And I wonder 
        F   Bb  F  Bb   
Wonder why 

 F                    Bb 
I'm through with the fighting  
         F      A       Dm 
All the terror and the pain 
               F 
I've seen the lightning 
          Bb 
Felt the thunder  
         C   C 
And the rain 

     F                  Bb      
The silver birds come screaming 
           F           A          Dm 
Painting blood right through the skies 
         Bb 
Still I worry,  
       C 
And I wonder 
        F   Bb   
Wonder why
