I've seen rivers red with blood,
C g
I've seen valleys filled with mud;
G a7 d
I've seen stormy seas that pound upon the shore.
G
I've seen mountains strewn with bones,
C g
I've seen people without homes,
G d em
And it's all with the pa*sing of my life.
I've seen highways headin' down,
I've seen green gra*s turn to brown;
I've seen forests burn a couple days or more.
I've seen prairies filled with holes,
I've seen good men sell their souls,
And it's all with the pa*sing of my life.
D g g/f# em
And as I see the fury of the fire and the flame
A7 d
I wonder if my children will have to see the same.
I've seen rockets all ablaze,
I've seen dark and deadly days;
I've seen cities bombed and butchered to the ground.
I've seen battles by the score,
I've seen ten too many wars,
And it's all with the pa*sing of my life.
And as I see the fury of the fire and the flame
I wonder if my children will have to see the same.
I've seen rockets all ablaze,
I've seen dark and deadly days;
I've seen cities bombed and butchered to the ground.
I've seen battles by the score,
I've seen ten too many wars,
And it's all with the pa*sing of my life --
Yes, it's all with the pa*sing of my life.
