There are rifles buried in the countryside by the rising of the moon

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 these seas
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, would they not tell us,
Time to lay God’s 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
