Redemption Day

Am I've wept for those who suffer long But how I weep for those who've gone Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong Dsus4 But keep on killing Am It's in the soul to feel such things But weak to watch without speaking Oh what mercy sadness brings Dsus4 Am If God be willing (Riff 1) Am/B C There is a train that's heading straight C/B Am Am/B C To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate C/B C And on the way, child and man C/B Am Am/B D And woman wait, watch and wait Am For redemption day Am The fire rages in the streets And swallows everything it meets It's just an image often seen Dsus4 On television Am Come leaders, come you men of great Let us hear you pontificate Your many virtues laid to waste Dsus4 Riff 1 And we aren't listening (Different) Am Dsus4 C Am What do you have for us today Am Dsus4 C Am Throw us a bone but saw the plate Am Dsus4 C Am Oh why we waited til so late Am Dsus4 Was there no oil to excavate No riches in trade for the fate Of every person who died in hate C Am Throw us a bone, you men of great Am/B C There is a train that's heading straight C/B Am Am/B C To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate C/B C And on the way, child and man C/B Am C Dsus4 And woman wait, watch and wait Am Riff 1 For redemption day Am C Dsus4 Am It's buried in the countryside Am C Dsus4 Exploding in the shells of night Am It's everywhere a baby cries Dsus4 Am Dsus4 Am Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom Ends on Am
