Oh, no cannonball did fly, no rifles cut us down
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
No bombs fell from the sky, no blood soaked the ground
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
No powder flash blinded the eye, no deathly thunder sound
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
But just as sure as the hand of God, they brought death to my hometown
C C Gsus2 C
They brought death to my hometown, boys
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C

C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
No shells ripped the evening sky, no cities burning down
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
No armies stormed the shores for which we'd die no dictators were crowned
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
I awoke from a quiet night, I never heard a sound
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
Marauders raided in the dark and brought death to my hometown, boys
C Gsus2 C
Death to my hometown

They destroyed our families' factories and they took our homes
F C G
They left our bodies on the plains, the vultures picked our bones
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
So listen up, my sonny boy, be ready for when they come
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
For they'll be returning sure as the rising sun
C Fmaj7 Gsus2 C
Now get yourself a song to sing and sing it 'til you're done
F C F C
Yeah, sing it hard and sing it well
F C F C
Send the robber barons straight to hell
F C F C
The greedy thieves who came around
F C F C
And ate the flesh of everything they found
F C F C
Whose crimes have gone unpunished now
F C F C
Who walk the streets as free men now
C C Gsus2 C
Ah, they brought death to our hometown, boys
C Gsus2 C
Death to our hometown, boys
C Gsus2 C
Death to our hometown, boys
C Gsus2 C
Death to our hometown, whoa!
