4th verse w/Rhy Figs 2 & 2A
 
 A5              A5#4  A5                 E5
                       My hands are tied.           For
 
G                                      D/F#
all I've seen has changed my mind, but still the
 
E5
wars go on as the as the years go by with no
 
G              D         E G F#    E5
love of God or human rights. Cause all these dreams are swept aside by
 
G                                  E5
bloody hands of the hypnotized who carry the cross of homicide.  And
 
G                      D
hist'ry bears the scars of our civil wars.
