[verse]
A D
In the broad daylight of a Summer’s day,
G
On the Cork to Dublin motorway.
D
Suddenly the singing birds,
A
Were startled in their song.
[verse]
A D
In the quiet of that moment,
G
Our world went out of kilter.
D
In that split second,
A D
Veronica was gone.
[verse]
A D
But you will never silence her,
G
Your story will be written,
D
Her spirit won’t rest easy,
A D
Until her job is done.
[verse]
A D
With fists and boots you broke her bones,
G
You gunned her down at home,
D
But as soon as she was able,
A D
She faced you once again.
[chorus]
G D
Veronica, Veronica, Veronica, warrior woman,
A
Veronica, Veronica, Veronica,
G D
I offer you this song.
A D
[verse]
A D
You who made the phone call,
G
And you who took the message down,
D
You who hired the hit men,
A
And you who hatched the plan,
[verse]
A D
You who drew the money down,
G
And you who paid it over,
D
You who remain silent,
A D
You are guilty, every one.
[chorus]
G D
Veronica, Veronica, Veronica, warrior woman,
A
Veronica, Veronica, Veronica,
G D
I offer you this song.
A D
[verse]
A D
In the broad daylight of a Summer’s day,
G
On the Cork to Dublin motorway.
D
In that split second,
A G D
Veronica was gone.
