Verse 1
Em 
The war
stopped for a moment
We held our breaths, my brothers and I
C 
The boys in the sky stopped crying
The red sun tried to shine
Em 
We  looked down from the mountaintop
And felt so alone
C 
This once was paradise
Em 
C 
This wasteland once was home
Em 
Oh, you're still alive inside baby,
that's all I need to know
C 
Without you my bloodlust
would have blinded me long ago
Em 
I wanna be your shelter
but there's no shelter left on earth
C 
I  wish I could hide you
but hiding only makes it worse
D 
C 
And don't let your demons make you cry
D 
C 
D 
No, no, it'll all be gone by morning
C 
Don't let your spirits leave your side
D 
No, no, stay close to the earth
So you don't get burned
Am 
Oh, my sweet child,
G 
D 
how did you sleep last night?
C 
Am 
G 
D 
And she said, I dreamed I saw St. Francis
Am 
He came in the body of a lion
G 
D 
And red tears in his eyes
C 
And he said, it don't have to be this way
It don't have to be this way

D 
Am 
C 
D 
Em 
The masters of war keep marching,
G 
D 
their work is never done
Am 
C 
The sacrifice continues in the form
of God's most innocent ones
Em 
The masters of religion better,
G 
D 
they better learn a new way to love
Am 
You know God never created anything,
C 
anything he's not part of
D 
C 
Don't let your demons make you cry,
D 
no, no
C 
They'll all be gone by morning
D 
C 
Don't let your spirits leave your side,
no, no
D 
Stay close to the end,
so you don't get burned
Am 
Oh, my sweet child,
G 
D 
how did you sleep last night?
Am 
G 
D 
She said, I dreamed I saw St. Francis
Am 
Can you feel the body of a lad
G 
D 
and the tears in his eyes?
Am 
G 
D 
And I, I dreamed I saw St. Francis
C 
And you said it don't have to be this way

Don't deny your own desire
Em 
There's a bad storm coming,
I believe it's coming our way
C 
The air is thick and cloudy,
the sky gets blacker every day
Em 
Rebel children are waiting,
their time is coming soon
C 
We face no future game,
we ain't got nothing left to lose
D 
C 
Don't let your demons make you cry, no, no
D 
C 
D 
Well, I'll be gone in the morning
