Tom: C

          F
Stop this war between our hearts
Bb                         C                             F
Let’s end this trouble and fighting that’s tearing us apart
                    F7      Bb
Let’s make peace between us two,
              F     C              F
Lay down your arms, I surrender to you

Cease that fire in a torch of hate
Let’s put out those flames that burn, let’s not debate
To conflict is wrong to do
Lay down your arms, I surrender to you

    C                                     Bb       F
Lay down your arms, don’t fight no more and give in
    C                               G                 C
Lay down your arms, our truce (?) and both side will win
