[Verse 6]
Can't punish those ruining
the earth
It's suicide to some degree

[Em]Before al Qaeda and Bin Laden
Long before Hitler and Hussein

[Verse 7]
Ever since [Em]the first murder was
committed
The verdict's always been [A#]the same
[Em]The [A#]curse[Em]d fut[A#]ure[Em][A#][Em]
just repeats the past
There's hell [Em]to pay
and stones to cast
So, there will be no peace, nev[Em]er be peace
[Em]Till the last [G]truth be told by you [A#]and me
