Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Listen children to a story, that was written long ago

About a kingdom on a mountain, and a valley far below

On the mountain was a treasure, buried deep beneath the stone

And the valley people swore, they'd have it for their very own

<>

Go ahead and hate your neighbour, go ahead and cheat a friend

Do it in the name of heaven, you can justify it in the end

There won't be any trumpets blowing, come the judgement day

On the bloody morning after-er-er, one tin soldier rides away

So the people of the valley, sent a message up the hill

Asking for the buried treasure, tons of gold for which they'd kill

Came an answer from the kingdom, with our brothers we will share

All the secrets of the mountain, all the riches buried there

<>

(key Change)

Now the valley cried with anger, mount your horses draw your swords

And they killed the mountain people, so they won their just reward

Now they stood beside the treasure, on the mountain dark and red

Turned the stone and looked beneath it, "Peace on Earth" was all it said
