[Start]

[Intro]
D7 E7 D7 E7 G E7 G C
            
G D G C G
    


[Verse]
G                                   
Must it take a life for hateful eyes
Em                   
To glisten once again
     C                           
Five hundred years like gelignite
Em                   D   
Have blown us all to hell
G                                           
What saviour rests while on his cross we die
Em                     
Forgotten freedom burns
C                                    
Has the shepherd led his lambs astray
Em                   D  
To the bigot and the gun


[Chorus]
C                   G               
Must it take a life for hateful eyes
C          D         
To glisten once again
G              C            Bm       Em      
'cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
G                        
Singing drunken lullabies

[Verse]
G                                 
I watch and stare as Roisín's eyes
Em                        
Turn a darker shade of red
    C                              
And the bullet with this sniper lie
Em                      D   
In their bloody gutless cell
G                                     
Must we starve on crumbs from long ago
Em                               
Through bars these men made steel
      C                                
Is it a great or little thing we fought
Em                           D      
Knelt the conscience blessed to kill


[Chorus]
C                   G               
Must it take a life for hateful eyes
C          D         
To glisten once again
G              C            G                
'cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
        D       G        
Singing drunken lullabies
   C                      G           
Ah but maybe it's the way we're taught
C                 D       G        
Ah but maybe it's the way we fought
C           D           G                C    
But a smile never grins without tears to begin
                 D        G       
For each kiss is a cry we all lost
C                      G      
Though nothing is left to gain
        C                          D    
But for the banshee that stole the grave
G              C            G            Em  
'cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
G               D

[Verse]
  G                          
I sit and dwell on faces past
     Em                   
Like memories seem to fade
   C                              
No colour left but black and white
    Em                 D   
And soon will all turn grey
              G                         
But may these shadows rise to walk again
     Em                  
With lessons truly learnt
         C                                 
When the blossom flowers in each our hearts
      Em              D    
Shall beat a newfound flame


[Chorus]
     C                    G           
Must  it take a life for hateful eyes
   C            D    
To glisten once again
