***CAPO 1***

INTRO: Am


AmI've wept for those who suffer long
AmBut how I weep for those who've gone
AmIn rooms of grief and questioned wrong
Am D AmBut keep on killing
AmIt's in the soul to feel such things
AmBut weak to watch without speaking
AmOh, what mercy sadness brings
Am D AmIf God be willing
CHORUS:
Am CThere is a train that's heading straight
C Am F CTo Heaven's gate, to Heaven's gate
CAnd on the way child and man
C Am F DAnd woman wait, watch and wait
D AmFor redemption day
(Verses same as before) Fire rages in the streets And swallows everything it meets It's just an image often seen On television Come leaders, come ye men of great Let us hear you pontificate Your many virtues laid to waste And we aren't listening (Repeat Chorus) BRIDGE:
D C FWhat do you have for us today
D C AmThrow us a bone but save the plate
D C FOn why we waited till so late
F DWas there no oil to excavate
D FNo riches in trade for the fate
F DOf every person who died in hate
D AmThrow us a bone, you men of great
(Repeat Chorus)
D C FIt's buried in the countryside
D C AmExploding in the shells at night
D C FIt's everywhere a baby cries
F D F D AmFreedom......Freedom......Freedom
