Up here in heaven (video) (intro)

C

1. Up on the hill I see it begin,

   F

marking the heroes where they fall,

                                                                     C

in the stone, in the stone the names of those who have gone.

C

2. And over the river, there is a place,

F

where they remember boys and men,

C

widows talk, widows talk of all that they could have been.

C                     Bb       F              C

We can hear you, we can hear you whisper our names.

C                        Bb         F             C

We can see you, we can see you reading our names.

F                             C

Up here in heaven, we stand together,

G                                        C

both the enemy and the friend, 'till the end of time.

F                         C

Up here in heaven, we are forever,

G                                       C

there is only on God up here, for all of the world.

C

3. What of the children caught in the war ?

F

How can we tell them what it's for ?

C

When they cry, when they cry are voices heard anymore?

C                     Bb       F              C

Are you listening, are you listening men of the war ?

C                  Bb       F              C

There is nothing, there is nothing worth dying for.

+ CHORUS (2x) ....
