Em Am9
The grass was as green as it always was that sinister day
Em Am9 Em
The blackbirds sang their songs as they always did that black-letter day
Am9 Em
We passed the great gate for the very last time
Am9
I did not look back, I knew we'd stay
Em Em6 Em6 G
I knew they they would not let us go leave the death strip
Em Em6
I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement
Em6 Em C
Suffering from the crushing weight
