Iron Maiden - Children Of The Damned

Em C
he’s walking like a small child ,
but watch his eyes burn you away .
black holes in his golden stare
god knows he wants to go home

Em Bm C
children of the damned x4
Em C
he’s walking like a dead man .
if he had lived he would have crucified us all .
now he’s standing on the last step .
he thought oblivion , well he beckons us all .

Em Bm C
children of the damned x4

Em B5
now it’s burning his hands , he’s turning to laugh ,
C
smiles as the flames sear his flesh .
Em B5
melting his face , screaming in pain .
C
watch him die according to plan ,
B5 C Em
he’s dust on the ground , what did we learn .

Em
you’re children of the damned ,
C
your back’s against the wall .
B5
you turn into the light .
C
you’re children of the damned ,
Em
like candles watch them burn .
C
burning in the light ,
B5
you’ll burn again tonight .
C Em
you’re children of the damned .
