[Verse 1]
Em G
It rained the morning, they brought you home
D/A D/A
I still hear your mother's tears, falling like stones
Em G
the world had broken, below the sun
D/A D/A
the flag was folded, the war begun
Em G
I see people angry, I held others who just cried
D/A D/A
Friends I knew as young as you, put their hands on the flag
C/G G
To do the things that need be done,
D/A C/G G
We ask the women and the young
 
[Verse 2]
Em Em
For they will come and haunt you,
G
Sometimes dead out on the street,
D/A D
And there I am, Im back again
D/A
I've got blood on my teeth
Em
I thought we would shine forever
C
All our rivers would run free
D/A D/A
I'm afraid if I forget you no, who'll remember me
C/G G
They think its over, but they dont know what they've won
 
D/A C/G G
Go ask the women and the young
D/A C/G G
Go ask the women and the young
 
[Verse 3]
Em G
These old graveyards get lonely, we've been coming here this long
D/A
But we just keep on diggin, diggin, diggin, diggin on,
C/G G
And every year we gather here, beneath the easter sun
C/G G
Remembering our fallen, and the things that still need done
 
[Outro]

Go ask the women and the young

Go ask the women and the young
D/A C/G G
Go ask the women and the young
