[Sampled Intro]
Bm Em "The court has come. The court of the Nations. Bm And into the courtroom will come the martyrs of Majdanek, and Oswiecim. G Em From the ditch of Kerch, the dead will rise. They will arise from the graves, Bm they will arise from flames bringing with them the acrid smoke and the deathly G odour of scorched and martyred Europe. And the children, they too will come, Em stern and merciless. The butchers had no pity on them; now the victims will judge the butchers. Bm Em N.C. Today the tear of the child is the judge. The grief of the mother is the prosecutor."
