[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
The [Em]door had opened [C]slowly,
[Em]my father he c[C]ame in, I [Em]was ni[D]ne y[C]ears o[B]ld
And he [Em]stood so tall above [C]me, [Em]his blue eyes they were shining,
[C]and[Em] his [D]voice was [C]very
[B]cold.
He [G]said, I've had a vision, and you know I'm strong and holy,
I [A]must do as [G]I've been [F#]told.
So [C]he started up the moun[F]tain, [C]I was running,
he was [F]walking, [C]and his[D] axe was made of gol[E]d.
[Em]The trees, got much [C]smaller, l[Em]ike a lady's mirro[C]r,
we [D]stopped and [C]drank some [B]wine.
Then he [Em]threw the bottle [C]over, [Em]broke a minute [C]later,
and he [D]put his [C]hand [B]on mine.
[G]I thought I saw an eagle, but it might have been a vulture,
I [A]nev[G]er could decide.
[F#]Then my fath[C]er built an alta[F]r, looke[C]d once behind his shoulder,

You who build these [C]altars [Em]now, to sacrifice [C]these children,
you must [D]not do it any[C]more.[B]
For [Em]a scheme is not a vi[C]sion,
[Em]an d you never have be[C]en tempted by a de[D]mon or[C] a g[B]od.
[G]You stand above them now, your hatchet's blunt and bloody,
you [A]were not [G]there before.
[F#]When I lay[C] upon the mountain,[F]
[C]my father's hand [F]was [C]trembling, with [D]the beauty of the
[E]word.[Em][C][Em]
And if you call me brother [C]now,
[Em]forgive me if I in[C]quir[Em]e just accordi[D]ng to who's [C]plan.[B]
[Em]When it all comes [C]down to dust,
[Em]I will kill you if I must, I will [D]help you if I [C]can.[B]
[G]When it all comes down to dust,
I will help you if I must, I will [A]kill you if [G]I can.[F#]
Have [C]mercy on [F]our [C]uniform, man of [F]peace or man of war,
[C]pea[D]cock spreads his fan[E].[Em][E][Em][C][Em][C][Em][C][Em]
[Em]You
