As I walk beneath the valley,
G D Am
I shall fear no evil,

For thanks to King George and his rainbow cabinet,

Today murder is legal

To kill my brother for what he hasn't done,

It sounds like heaven is falling,

You promised me a new day a dawning

I've seen a thousand points of light,

Like so many points of hatred, shame and horror

It sounds like heaven is falling,

Caught 'tween the devil and the deep blue sea
