     A/B            E9 (w/ pull off)   D#m7   D  (C bass) D  E9 (add g
bass)
There are rifles buried in the countryside for the rising of the moon
     A/B       D9 (po)           G9           A         D
May the lie there long forgotten till they rust away into the ground
     A/B            E9 (w/ pull off)   D#m7   D  (C bass) D  E9 (add g
bass)
Who will bend this ancient hatred, will the killing to an end
     A/B       D9 (po)           G9           A         D
Who will swallow long injustice, take the devil for a country man
A/B         D#m7      D   C        D/F#  G9  D/F#  C#m7
Who will say this far no further, oh lord, if I die today

(Solo)

Send no weapons no more money. Send no vengeance across the sea
Just the blessing of forgiveness for my new countrymen and me

     A/B       E9        D#m7 F#   E9
Missing brothers, martyred fellows, silent children in the ground
Could we but hear them could they not tell us
Time to lay the rifle down

     A/B       D#m7  D    C       D/F#  G9  D/F#  C#m7
Who will say this far no further, oh Lord, if I die today.

C#m7 - A - A(w/ HO) - A - G9
