Verse 1
Am
B
when the hour was getting late,
with knives and guns,
Am
B
young men armed with hay,
G
D
Em
and he died there in his tracks
For one man is no army
Am
D
when the city turns its back
He left behind a chamber
B
Em
Where he learned the prayers
of distant men
Am
B
Will never right the wrongs
G
D
Em
And his pulpit was the street
And he made his congregation
Am
D
From the boys he used to meet
There were two gangs approaching
B
Em
The smell of blood was in the air
F#dim
B
and the chal lenge was laid down
G
D
Em
and he tried to save their lives
And the answer that they gave him
D
G
And now the streets are empty,
Will Lumash, life forgotten,
Am
B
in his cold and silent grave
Am
B
in those he tried to save
G
D
will now and then recall
Am
D
the tombstone of us all
