Verse 1
I (A major) had (D major) a dream that I woke from my sleep
in (G major) a house where no (D major) one spoke.
It lay on the border
between two great na
(A major) tions at (Asus4) war. (A major)
(D major) There were landmines and barbed wire
Flags shot to pieces
A (G major) staircase of ancient (D major) white oak
One (B minor) word could unravel the sea's (G major) fire
(D major) So words were no more
The (G major) fight had raged (A major) so (B minor) long
That (D major) no one remembered
the (G major) way it (A major) (G major) (B minor) had (G major) (A major) begun (B minor)
And (D major) all those December sad (G major) years
Ache (B minor) (A major) for (G major) the words
(B minor) (D major) (A major) (G major) (B minor) (G major) (A major)
(D major) What a dream, what a scene
Now a crowd filled the streets
So (G major) desperate to have some control
(D major) They burned their own buildings
Drank their own poisons and still (A major)
Still (D major) they clung to their vices
Their beds, wine and dice
Yes, (G major) the lovers who'd never say no (D major)
While the (G major) demons just (B minor)
lapped up the (G major) sadness
Till (A major) they had their (D major) fill
And a (G major) heart can grow so (B minor) old
From (D major) taking its beatings
That (G major) hope is hard to hold (B minor)
And if (D major) love's (A major) just (D major) a feel (G major) ing (D major) the fear
(G major) is that there (A major) are no words (G major)
that (A major) (G major) would let the (B minor) (G major) war
(A major) (Asus4) be (A major) done. (G major)
The (A major) (B minor) people craved peace,
the people craved rest,
but (A major) all of the things that they'd done
and left them (G major) buried by shame in the rubble
of fear (F sharp minor) angry at what they'd become
But in the smoke (E minor) of the ashes
at (G major) the cross (F sharp minor) of the great divide (D major)
(G major) there appeared (D major) brave men (G major) and women
(D major) (G major) You (B minor) dared to break the silence (A major)
with (D major) kindness (G major) (B minor)
(A major) Words (D major) (G major) of kindness,
real (B minor) true (D major) kindness (G major)
With (D major) its healing touch (G major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) Risk (A major) ing (D major) forgiveness and trust
Oh, (G major) kindness (D major) (B minor) (A major)
It was (G major) kindness (A major) af (G major)
(B minor) ter (G major) (A major) all (B minor)
Sweet (D major) fruit of the Spirit
Where (G major) love (A major) through (G major) scenes
(B minor) (G major) to (A major) (D major) fall (B minor)
And (D major) gave ears to hear (G major) its sweet song
(B minor) That (D major) spoke (A major) the (G major) words (D major)
(A major) And (G major) let the (B minor) war (A major) be done you
