[Gm] [A]
[Am] [G]
[Am] Now you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that [D] build the big [Am] bombs
You that [D] hide [Am] behind walls
You that [G] hide [Am] behind desks.
I just want you to know I can see through your masks
You that never done nothing
But [G] build [Am] to destroy
You [D] play [Am] with my world
Like it's your little toy
[Am] You put a gun in my head
You [A] hide from my eyes
[Am]
Then you turn and run farther when the fast bullets fly
like Judas of old
You lie and deceive a world war can be won
You want me to believe?
[G] [Am] But I see through your eyes
And I [G] see through your [Am] brain
Like I see through the water that runs down my drain
You fasten their [Em] triggers
[Am] For others to fire
[G] Then [Am] [D] you sit back and [Am] watch
[G] When [A] the death [Am] count gets [G] higher
[A] You [G] hide in your [Am] [Em] mansion
[Am] As young [G] people's [Am] blood
[G] Flows [Am] out of their [G] bodies and is [Am] buried in the mud
[G] [Am] You've thrown the worst fear
[G] [A] That can [G] never be [Am] hurled
[G] [Am] The [G] fear to [A] bring children
[Em] [A] [G] Into [Am] the world
[G] [Am] Or [Em] threaten my baby
[Am] [G] Unborn and [Am] unnamed
[G] [Am] You ain't worth the blood that runs in your vein
How much do I know?
To talk out of turn
[G]
[Am] You might [Em] say that I'm young
[Am] You might [G] say I'm [Am] unlearned
There's [G] one thing I [Am] know
[G]
[Am] Though I'm [G] younger [Am] than you
[G]
[Am] Even [G] Jesus [G] would never forgive what [Am] you do
[G] [Am] Let me ask you one question
[G] [Am] Is your [Em] money [Am] that good?
[G] [Am] Will it [Em] buy you forgiveness?
[Am] Do you [G] think that [Am] it could?
[G] [Am] I think you will find
[G] [Am] When your [G] debt [Am] takes its [G] toll
[Am] All the [G] money you made will never buy back [A] your soul
[Am] [G]
[Am] Now you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that [D] build the big [Am] bombs
You that [D] hide [Am] behind walls
You that [G] hide [Am] behind desks.
I just want you to know I can see through your masks
You that never done nothing
But [G] build [Am] to destroy

[G] [Am] But I see through your eyes
And I [G] see through your [Am] brain
Like I see through the water that runs down my drain
You fasten their [Em] triggers
