The Byrds I Come And Stand At Every Door by N.Hikmet

D C/D D C/D D

I come and stand at every door but no one hears my silent prayer

G A D Em C D

I knock and yet remain unseen for I am dead for I am dead

D C/D D

I'm only seven although I died

C/D D

In Hiroshima long ago

G A D Em C D

I'm seven now and I was then when children die they do not grow

D C/D D

My hair was scorched by swirling fire

C/D D

My eyes grew dim my eyes grew blind

G A D

Death came and turned my bones to dust

Em C D

And that was scattered by the wind

D C/D D C/D D

I need no fruit I need no rice I need no sweets nor even bread

G A D Em C D

I ask for nothing for myself for I am dead for I am dead

D C/D D

All that I ask for is for peace

C/D D

You fight today you fight today

G A D

So that the children of this world

Em C D

May live and grow and laugh and play

From the "Fifth Dimension" LP Columbia Records 1966
