verse 1: 
            D  G            D 
A child is born on a battlefield, 
           F#m G             A 
A soldier boy falls to his knees, 
              G               F#m 
And a woman cries in joy and pain,

When will we live in peace again? 

verse 2: 
            D  G                      D 
A child is born where the wild wind blows, 
              F#m G                      A 
In a country torn from the south to the north, 
              G                F#m 
And a family runs from day to day, 
              A       G     Bm 
When will we see our home again? 


              G               F# 
When will we see the simple truth, 
           Bm                  G 
The only thing that's worth a damn, 
                Em7                 D  A 
The life of a child is more than a forest, 
                Em7                 D  A 
The life of a child is more than a border,  
            Bm  G  Em7  D  A 
Could ever be.

            D  G               D 
A child is born in the desert sun, 
        F#m  G          A 
A tiny life has just begun, 
               G                   F#m 
And a mother cries for her hungry babe, 
             A       G    D 
When will I feed my boy again? 

verse 4: 
            D  G                D 
A child is born to an ordinary home, 
         F#m  G              A 
East or west, it could be anyone, 
                     G                            F#m 
But we all want to know, will my child survive to see the day, 
         A         G     Bm 
When we will be secure again? 

 

              G               F# 
When will we see the simple truth, 
                Bm                  G 
That the only thing that's worth a damn, 
                Em7                 D  A 
The life of a child is more than a forest,  
                Em7                 D  A 
The life of a child is more than a border, 
                Em7                 D  A  
The life of a child is more than religion,  
                Em7            D    A               Bm    
The life of a child is only a heartbeat from eternity, 
           G              Em7     D     A
