| Em | D | Em | D | Em | |
| Come you masters of | war |
| Em | D | Em | D | Em | |
| You that build all the g | uns |
| Em | D | Em | D | Em | |
| You that build the death pl | anes |
| Em | D | Em | D | Em | |
| You that build the big b | ombs |
| Em | D | Em | D | Em | |
| You that hide behind w | alls |
| Em | D | Em | D | Em | |
| You that hide behind d | esks |
| Em | Am | |
| I just | want you to k | now |
| Em | D | Em | D | Em | |
| I can see through your m | asks |
| You that never done nothin' |
| But build to destroy |
| You play with my world |
| Like it's your little toy |
| You put a gun in my hand |
| And you hide from my eyes |
| And 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 |
| But I see through your eyes |
| And I see through your brain |
| Like I see through the water |
| That runs down my drain |
| You fasten the triggers |
| For the others to fire |
| Then you set back and watch |
| When the death count gets higher |
| You hide in your mansion |
| As young people's blood |
| Flows out of their bodies |
| And is buried in the mud |
| You've thrown the worst fear |
| That can ever be hurled |
| Fear to bring children |
| Into the world |
| For threatening my baby |
| Unborn and unnamed |
| You ain't worth the blood |
| That runs in your veins |
| How much do I know |
| To talk out of turn |
| You might say that I'm young |
| You might say I'm unlearned |
| But there's one thing I know |
| Though I'm younger than you |
| Even Jesus would never |
| Forgive what you do |
| Let me ask you one question |
| Is your money that good |
| Will it buy you forgiveness |
| Do you think that it could |
| I think you will find |
| When your death takes its toll |
| All the money you made |
| Will never buy back your soul |
| And I hope that you die |
| And your death'll come soon |
| I will follow your casket |
| In the pale afternoon |
| And I'll watch while you're lowered |
| Down to your deathbed |
| And I'll stand o'er your grave |
| 'Til I'm sure that you're dead |
