Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I[Bm][D][Gsus2][Asus4][D]
[G]wok[D]e u[Bm]p th[G]is m[A]or[Asus4]ning,[A][D]
and none of the news was [G]good
[D]Death machines were rum[Bm]blin' 'cross
the [Gsus2]ground where Je[G]sus st[Gsus2]ood[A]
And [D]the man on my TV told me that
it had always been that way
[G]And there [D]was nothing any
[A]one could do or say
[D]

[Verse 2]
And I almost [Bm]listene[D]d to him
Yeah, [Gsus2]I al most lost my mind
[D]And I regained my [A]senses
[Bm]agai[D]n
Looked in[Gsus2]to my hea[G]rt to fin[A]d

[Verse 3]
That [D]I believe that one fine day
all the children of Abra[G]ham
Will lay [D]down their swords
[Bm]forever in [A]Jerusalem
[D]

[Verse 4]
Well maybe I'm only dreamin'
and maybe I'm just a [G]fool
But I [D]don't remember [Bm]learnin' how
to [Gsus2]hate in Sunday scho[D]ol[A]
Some[D]where along the way I strayed
and I never looked back [G]again
But I [D]still find some com
[A]fort now and then
[D]

[Verse 5]
Then the storm comes [Bm]rumblin' [D]in
And I [G]can't [Gsus2]lay me down
[D]And the drums are drummin[Bm]' aga[D]in
And [Gsus2]I can't stand
[G]the[A] sound[Asus4][A]

[Verse 6]
But [D]I believe there'll come a day
when the lion and the lamb
[G]Will lie[Gsus2] down in [D]peace
to[Bm]gether in Jerusalem

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]
[Bm][D][Gsus2][G][Gsus2][D][Bm][D][Asus4]
[Gsus2][Asus4][A][D]
[G][D][Bm][A][D]

[Verse 7]
And there'll be no bar[Bm]ricades [D]then
There'll [Gsus2]be no wire o[G]r wal[Gsus2]ls[D]
And we can wash all this
[Bm]blood from our [D]hands
And all this [Gsus2]hatred fr[G]om [Gsus2]our souls[Asus4]
[A]An

[Verse 8]
[D]d I believe that on that day all
the children of Abra[G]ham
[Gsus2]Will lay [G]down[D] their swords
[Bm]forever in [A]Jer[D]usalem
