- As per a number of requests, here are the lyrics and chords for "I Come and
- Stand at Every Door"
-
-
-
-
- C Dm Bb C I come and stand at every door
-
- C Dm G C But none can hear my silent tread
-
- F Em Dm C I knock and yet remain unseen
-
- Dm Bb C
- For I am dead, for I am dead
-
-
- I'm only seven, although I died
- In Hiroshima long ago
- I'm seven now, as I was then
- When children die, they do not grow old
-
- My hair was scorched by swirling flame
- My eyes grew dim, my eyes grew blind
- Death came and turned my bones to dust
- and that was scattered by the wind
-
- I need no fruit, I need no rice
- I need no sweets nor even bread
- I ask for nothing for myself
- For I am dead, for I am dead
-
- All that I ask is that for peace
- You fight today, you fight today
- So that the children of this world
- May live and grow, and laugh and play
-
