[Verse]
C      Dsus2 Em                    C           Dsus2           Em                              CFade away, exploiting our children. When you ignore them, they flow down the river of all your life
                      Dsus2      Em                                     Dsus2            EmThree times you heard them, they begged for a companion for the need to cure their loneliness

[Chorus]
            C                   Dsus2            EmAn innocent child you are, back when, so full of life you were
                         C             Dsus2           EmBack when, and I saw the aging eyes of wisdom creeping in
            C                Dsus2                EmAnd so you lost it all, back when, as I wrote the news of the war
                         C                  Dsus2      EmBack when, in time never change the way you were back when

[Verse]
C           Dsus2 Em                       C             Dsus2        Em                              C Behind the wall  sinners hide their faces, those with coercive hands bleeding out what little hope remained
    Dsus2    Em                      C               Dsus2     EmFor them and still for a moment your innocence cries out for a way

[Chorus]
            C                   Dsus2            EmAn innocent child you are, back when, so full of life you were
                         C             Dsus2           EmBack when, and I saw the aging eyes of wisdom creeping in
            C                Dsus2                EmAnd so you lost it all, back when, as I wrote the news of the war
                         C                  Dsus2      EmBack when, in time never change the way you were back when
