INTRO
Bsus2
VERSE 1
With all the grain of Babylon
To cultivate, To make us strong
And hidden here behind the walls
Are shoulders wide and timber on
Asus2
Till the war came
Bsus2
Till the war came
VERSE 2
A terrible autonomy
Is grafted onto you and me
A trust put in the governments
Who told their lies as heaven sent
Asus2
Till the war came
Bsus2
Till the war came
CHORUS
G Asus2 Bsus2
And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul
G Asus2 Bsus2
And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball
G A Em G
And they're picking out our eyes by cold and candlelight
G
When the war came
Asus2 Bsus2
The war came hard
VERSE 3
We made our oaths to Avalon
We'd not betray the soul lain on
The acres of hysteracy
To our own pangs of starvation
Asus2
When the war came
Bsus2
When the war came
CHORUS
G Asus2 Bsus2
And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul
G Asus2 Bsus2
And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball
G A Em G
And they're picking out our eyes by cold and candlelight
G
When the war came
Asus Bssu2
The war came hard
OUTRO
With all the grain of Babylon
