1. In this our life on
earth, another dawn we face,
G D - C A
is
this the moment of truth for the whole human race ?

Is that the last man down, is
that the last life laid to waste ?
G D C A
Can we find in our hearts each
and every dream we’ve misplaced ?
F C A

Before heaven cries tears, on the mountain we climb.
D Bm - D A
Farewell to arms, rest in peace,
G D A
may the
rain of freedom be released !
D Bm - D A
Farewell to arms, we just can’t walk away,
G D

we’re
all sharing this earth at the end of the day.

2. When the cold
winds bite, and the mad dogs speak,
G D

however
dark is your night, just keep
turning your cheek.

’Cause when the last shot’s
fired, it is then the world will be free,
G

and
still we are asking just how long
will it be ?
F C A
Though we’re blown by the
crosswinds, we stand like a tree.
