Thousands of children scarred for life
D A Bm
Millions of tears for a soldier's wife
D A Bm
Both sides are losing now
D A Bm
Heaven takes them in
Bm A G
Thousands of children scarred for life
Bm A Bm
We had a chance to change our mind
D A Bm
But somehow wisdom was hard to find
D A Bm
We went with what we knew and now we can't go back
Bm A G
But we had a chance to change our mind.
