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