Verse 1
I was born on a Tuesday
in a town that never sleeps through the summer heat
My mother sang a lullaby
to a baby who believed in everything
Pre-Chorus
Then the radio told me
who I ought to fear
And I started to wonder
why the drums sound so near
Chorus
Let us join hands
Let us join hands
Put the flags in the drawer
and the guns in the sand
Let us join hands
Let us join hands
Till the whole world understands
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Come on now
Come on now
Verse 2
I met a girl from the valley
she had fire in her hair and a map of the stars
We talked until the morning
about the foolish ways of powerful men
Pre-Chorus
They borrow our children
send them far from home
Then they count up the numbers
on a golden telephone
Chorus
Let us join hands
Let us join hands
Put the flags in the drawer
and the guns in the sand
Let us join hands
Let us join hands
Till the whole world understands
Bridge
Open your eyes
It won't be long
Soon we'll sing a different song
Open your eyes
It won't be long
Soon we'll sing a different song
Guitar Solo
Chorus
Let us join hands
Let us join hands
Put the flags in the drawer
and the guns in the sand
Let us join hands
Let us join hands
Till the whole world understands
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Come on now
Come on now
