Chorus:

         F                                             C/G

	Was it bitter then,with our backs against the wall

         G                                        C/G

	Were we better men,then we'd ever been before

         F                                                         C/G

	Say if she came again today,would you still answer to the call

         G                                           C/G

	Tell the truth my friend,don't it matter anymore





Verse 1:

         F                                           C/G

	We were simple men,by her side when she was born

         G                                            C/G

	It was simple then,like the freedom when you fall

         F                                                         C/G

	We were smaller then you see,but soon we gathered like a storm

          G                                              C/G

	They don't understand what that thunder meant at all





Verse 2:

         F                                      C/G

	Was he crucified,was he done in by the law

         G                                        C/G

	Are you satisfied that he'll never ride again

         F                                                    C/G

	Some people say he got away,they say he never died at all

         G                                           C/G

	If that story's true,does it bother you my friend





Chorus.
