when the hour was getting late,
with knives and guns,

young men armed with hay,
E

C#m
and he died there in his tracks
For one man is no army
F#m
B
when the city turns its back
He left behind a chamber
G#

Where he learned the prayers
of distant men
F#m
G#
Will never right the wrongs
E

And his pulpit was the street
And he made his congregation
F#m

From the boys he used to meet
There were two gangs approaching

The smell of blood was in the air
D#dim

and the chal lenge was laid down
E

and he tried to save their lives
And the answer that they gave him

And now the streets are empty,
Will Lumash, life forgotten,
F#m

in his cold and silent grave
F#m

in those he tried to save
E

the tombstone of us all
