Child Of War
Key D-Dur 99 Bpm 4:09
Intro
Verse 1
In The Ruins Of A City Torn,
Where The Wind Still Carried The Sound Of War,
Lay A Boy With Eyes So Wide And Scared,
A Tiny Soul In A World Unfair.
Verse 2
His Mama’s Hands Were Calloused, Worn,
From The Weight Of Days She’d Had To Mourn,
His Daddy’s Chair Stayed Empty There,
Just A Ghost Of Smoke In The Evening Air.
Chorus
Oh, He Was A Child Of War, But He Never Cried,
Though The Night Was Long And The Hope Was Tied.
Through The Dust And The Blood And The Pourin’ Rain,
He Learned To Walk Through The Fire And Pain.
Verse 3
He’d Play With Sticks Like They Were Swords,
Fightin’ The Shadows Of The Lord Of War,
His Laughter Bright In The Darkest Place,
A Spark Of Light In A World Of Gray.
Chorus
Oh, He Was A Child Of War, But He Never Cried,
Though The Night Was Long And The Hope Was Tied.
Through The Dust And The Blood And The Pourin’ Rain,
He Learned To Walk Through The Fire And Pain.
Solo
Verse 4
Now The Years Have Turned And The Wounds Have Healed,
But The Stories Live In The Fields He’s Tilled,
And When The Wind Blows Through The Old Oak Tree,
You Can Hear The Boy He Used To Be.
Chorus
Oh, He Was A Child Of War, But He Never Cried,
Though The Night Was Long And The Hope Was Tied.
Through The Dust And The Blood And The Pourin’ Rain,
He Learned To Walk Through The Fire And Pain.
Solo
Chorus
Oh, He Was A Child Of War, But He Never Cried,
Though The Night Was Long And The Hope Was Tied.
Through The Dust And The Blood And The Pourin’ Rain,
He Learned To Walk Through The Fire And Pain.
