_ In Germany, _ first they came for the communists, _ and I wasn't a communist, so I didn't speak up.
_ _ _ And then they came for the Jews, and I wasn't a Jew, so I didn't speak up.
_ _ _ [C] And then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't belong to any trade union, so I didn't speak up.
_ _ _ And they came [Cm] for the _ _ Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.
And _ [G] then they [Eb] came for me, _ and there was nobody left to speak up at all.

Come _ _ _ _ _ you masters of war, _ _ _ _ _ [C] you that build all the [Eb] guns, _ _ _ [C] _ _ you that build [Eb] the death planes, _ _ _
_ you that build [C] the big bombs, _ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _
you that hide [Eb] behind walls, _ _
[A] _ [Cm] you that hide behind, _ _
_ _ I [Bbm] just want you [C] to know [Ab] I can see [C] through _ _ _ _ _ _ you who never do.
_ [Cm] _
_ _ _ _ _ What build to [C] _ [Cm] destroy?
_ _ [C] _ _
You play with my _ [Cm] _
world _ like it's [C] your little toy.
_ You _ _ [Cm] _
put a gun in my [Eb] _ _ hand, [A] _ [Ab] and then you hide from [Gm] my [Cm] eye,
_ _ and [Bb] you turn and run [Ab] farther when the fact, _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ like Judas of old, [Cm] _ _ _ _ [C] you build to deceive.
_ [Cm] _ _ _
[C] The world's war can be [Cm] won, _ _ _ [Eb] you want me [C] to believe.
_ _ _ _ _ _ But I [Cm] see through your eyes, [Eb] _ _ _
[A] _ _ [Ab] I see through your brain, _
[C] _ like I see through the water that runs down. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ You've thrown the _ fear _ _ _ _ that can never be hurled, _ _ _ _ _ _ the fear to bring _ [Eb] children _ _ _ _ _ _ _ into [C] this world. _
_ _ _ You [Cm] threaten my _ baby, _ _ _ _ unborn and unnamed, _ [C] _ _
and you ain't worth the blood that runs in. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well I hope that you die, [Cm] _ _ _
_ _ and that your death comes soon.
_ _ _ _ And I'll follow your coffin _ [F] _ [Eb] _ [Dm] _ [Cm] _
[C] _ _ in the pale _ afternoon, _ _ _ _ _ and I'll watch while [Bb] you're lower _ [Ab] your _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
deathbed.
_ _ And [Eb] I'll stand [F] by your [Ab] grave till I'm [Eb] sure that you're dead. _ _
