Masters Of War Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Come, you masters of war
You that build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs

[Verse 2]
You that [Am]hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can [Dm]see through your m[Am]asks

[Verse 3]
You that never done [Am]nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy

[Verse 4]
You put a gun in my [Am]hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast [Dm]bullets [Am]fly

[Verse 5]
Like Judas [Am]of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want [Dm]me to be[Am]lieve

[Verse 6]
But I see through your [Am]eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That run[Dm]s down my drain
[Am][Dm][Am]

[Verse 7]
You fasten all the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you sit back and watch
When the death count gets higher

[Verse 8]
You hide in your [Am]mansion
This young peoples' blood
[Dm]Flows out of their [Am]bodies
And is buried [Dm]in the mud
[Am][Dm]

[Verse 9]
[Am]
You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
[Dm]

[Verse 10]
[Am]
And let me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness?
Do you think that it could?

[Verse 11]
I think you will [Am]find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never [Dm]buy back
your soul
[Am][Dm]

[Verse 12]
[Am]
[Dm]All the money you [Am]made
Will never buy back your soul
