Verse I C G Am Em Listen children to a story that was written long ago F C Dm G7 'Bout a kingdom on a mountain, and the valley folk below C G Am Em On the mountain was a treasure buried deep beneath a stone F C Dm G C And the valley people swore they'd have it for their very own. (Chorus:) C Em F G Go ahead and hate your neighbor, go ahead and cheat a friend C Em F G Do it in the name of heaven, you can justify it in the end C Em F C There won't be any trumpets blowing, come the judgment day N/C F C On the bloody morning after - one tin soldier rides away. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-original-caste/259128.html ] Verse II C G Am Em So the people of the valley sent a message up the hill F C Dm G7 Asking for the buried treasure, tons of gold for which they'd kill C G Am Came an answer from the kingdom: “With our brothers we will share F C Dm G C All the secrets of our mountain, all the riches buried there.” Chorus Verse III C G Am Em Now the valley cried with anger, mount your horses, draw your sword! F C Dm G7 And they killed the mountain people, sure they’d won their just reward C G Am Em Now they stood beside the treasure on the mountain dark and red F C Turned the stone and looked beneath it - Dm G C "Peace on Earth" was all it said.
