[Intro]
D

[Verse]
D                          D7
musical ladders leaning on mountains
G                                  D
bathed in white laughter under the sun
D7                              G
somebody's birthday came stumbling towards us
D                                   G
wrapped in green gladness under the sun

[Chorus]
Em                                   A
we're gonna make it through this war tonight
Em                                 A
someone hold this child up to the light

[Verse]
D                                D7
prostitute fingers fumbling with matches
G                                 D
tucked in red couches under green moons
D7                           G
mexican waitress got caught in the crossfire
D                                   G
of militant families bursting with jews
[Chorus]
Em                                  A
we're gonna break it to your folks tonight
Em                                  A
kinda hope your pops don't hear me right

[Outro]
A7  D
   Oh yeah
