The A7aug (x-0-3-0-2-1) is plainly called Aaug in the chord sheet, because
it wouldn't be highlighted with the 7 included. One should always play 
the 7, though.

If blood will flow, when flesh and steel are one
Aaug          A7sus4 A7     Dsus2   Dm
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
           Dm7                Gm7
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away

But something in our minds will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant to clinch a lifetime's argument
     Aaug               A7sus4 A7        Dsus2        Dm
That nothing comes from vio -  lence and nothing ever could
    Dm7                             Gm7
For all those born beneath an angry star
     Aaug          A7sus4  A7 Dsus2   Dm
Lest we forget how fragile we are


[Chorus]

On and on the rain will fall
     Dm
Like tears from a star
     Dm
Like tears from a star

How fragile we are
    Dm
How fragile we are

Like tears from a star
     Dm
Like tears from a star
Bb6           Aaug 
On and on the rain will say
    Dm
How fragile we are
    Dm
How fragile we are

    Dm
How fragile we are
    Dm
How fragile we are
