[D] A husband [Em] waits [Bm] outside
A crying [A] child pushes a [D] child into [G] the [G] night
[Bm]
She was [D] told he [Em] would come this [Bm] time
Without [A] leaving so much [D] as a feather [G]
behind
[Bm] To ignite [B] at last a [F#] perfect plan
One more [B] sweet boy [F#m] to be [G] butchered by man
[Em] The gateway [D] to [A] the earth
[A] [D]
[G] [Bm]
[Em] Will never [D] belong [A] to any of us
And for how [E] long?
[G] [Bm]
[Em] So [E] long, oh [A] Lord
[F#]
[G] You'll find
[G]
[D]
Her [E] grandmother's smuggling [Bm]
mace
Past where [A] the godchild soldiers [D] had tamed [G] her stood dead
[Bm]
[D] Our graceful [B] turner of [Bm] heads
Weaves through [A] the checkpoints like [D] a needle [G] and thread
[Bm] And frightened [B] boy [D] waves around
[F#] She offers [Bm] another [F#m] smile [G] and says [Em] she's gone
The gateway [D] to [A] the mother
Gone [D] in a [G] trend they've got
[B]
[Em] When each [D] other [A] unmakes the boundary
Her love [D] that makes [G] us [Bm]
[Em] all [A] one
