(ver. 1)
David Ford
G                          Dsus2
Stephen the flags are half mast at the station
               Cadd9                    G
There's a cloud hanging over this town
    G                                Dsus2
The wind blows apology the sun looks ashamed
      Cadd9             Bm7
As he hides out behind Portadown

    C                            Dsus2
And out there are children still raised on old anger 
   G                                 C
To believe there's a reason to fight
      G               Dsus2  Cadd9       G
But a piece of land's only a piece of land
    Cadd9  Dsus2       Em
And you will not come home tonight

G                   Dsus2
Stephen the uniform visitors 
     Cadd9              G
Unexpectedly late yesterday
  G                    Dsus2
I opened the door to a man and a woman
     Cadd9                         Bm7
Oh I knew what they'd come here to say

C                   Dsus2          
I've never seen any darkness so deep
       G                             C
As the moment when I clicked off the light
G                 Dsus2  Cadd9           G
A piece of land's only a piece of land
    Cadd9        Dsus2        Em
And you will not come home tonight

Am    C    Em
Oh...
Am    C    Em
Oh...

G                        Dsus2
Stephen the paper's been filled with your picture
   Cadd9                            G
It seems the whole world knows your name
    G                           Dsus2
And would you believe there was Martin McGuinness
    Cadd9                        Bm7
Out condemning these bastards to blame

   C                       Dsus2
Oh I've never seen so much orange and green
       G                         C
Come together on a thin strip of white
        G               Dsus2  Cadd9          G
Still a piece of land's only a piece of land
    Cadd9        Dsus2        Em
And you will not come home tonight
  G               Dsus2  Cadd9          G
A piece of land's only a piece of land
    Cadd9        Dsus2        G
And you will not come home tonight
