Intro:
[] [/] [] [] [] [/] [] x2
[F]Life was filled with guns and war,
[F7]and everyone got trampled on the flo[Bb]or,
I wish we d [F/C]all be[C]en re[Bb/C]ad[C]y
[F]Children died the days grew cold
[F7]a piece of bread could buy a bag of [Bb]gold
I wish we d [F/C]all be[C]en re[Bb/C]ad[C]y
[Bb]There s no time to [F]change your mind
the [Eb]Son has come and [Bb]you ve been left be[F]hind
A man and wife asleep in bed,
she hears a noise and turns her head he s gone,
I wish we d all been ready
Two men walking up a hill,
one disappears and one s left standing still,
I wish we d all been ready
There s no time to change your mind
the Son has come and you ve been left behind
Life was filled with guns and war,
and everyone got trampled on the floor,
I wish we d all been ready
Children died the days grew cold
a piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we d all been ready
There s no time to change your mind,
how could you have been so blind
The Father spoke the Demons dined,
the Son has come and you ve been left behind
