Noel [A]Paul Stookey]
Show me the famine, show me the frail

with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, go [D]you or I.
Show me the country where
[Gm]bombs had to [D]fall,
Show me [Bm]the ruins of

And [Bm]I'll show you a young land with
[G]so many reason[Em]s wh[F#m]y
There [D]but for fortun[Em]e,
go you [A]or [D]go I -- you and I.
You and I,
There but for fortune,
go you or go I -- you and I.
