      F#m
Gotta lift up every stone now sister
      A          E         B           F#m
Gotta clear this field and build that wall 


           F#m
He was the prince of the county to the manor born
    E                       B
The sheets were bloody and dirty and torn
  F#m
Nobody saw nothing, not out this way
         A        E               B        F#m
And they probably won't until the judgment day 

CHORUS X1

            F#m
There was a mighty whispering down at the church
          E                      B        
About the son of the father of a woman got hurt
          F#m
They were looking all over for somebody to pay
           A          E          B     F#m
And that's you and me sister now every day
