Listen children to a story that was written long ago
Bb F Gm7
'Bout a kingdom on a mountain and the valley folk below
F C Dm
On the mountain was a treasure buried deep beneath a stone
Bb F Gm7 F Bb F
And the valley people swore they'd have it for their very own
CORUS:
Am Bb F
Go ahead and hate your neighbour, go ahead and cheat a friend
Am Bb F
Do it in the name of heaven, justify it in the end
Am Bb F
There won't be any trumpets blowin, come the judgement day
Bb
On the bloody morning after......
Bb F Bb
One tin soldier rides away.
So the people of the valley sent a message up the hill
Asking for the buried treasure tons of gold for which they'd kill
Came an answer from the kingdom "With our brothers we wil share
All the secrets of our mountain, all the riches buried there."
CHORUS
Now the valley cried with anger, mount your horses, draw your sword
and they killed the mountain people so the won their just reward
Now they stood beside the treasure on the mountain, dark and red
turned the stone and looked beneath it, "Peace on Earth" was all it said.
CHORUS
