Capo on II Fret
Cm      G#                Eb
A young lady leaves her mother

               Bb
With no one to love her

G#                        Eb
To protect her from the world

Cm       G#              Eb
And I have seen the monsters

            Bb
That will haunt her

    G#                    Eb
That will tear her all apart

Cm             Bb        Eb         G#
And at her gravestone we will remember

Cm                 Bb        Eb           G#
Just where we were when you knew she would go

Cm                 Bb        Eb            G#
And I still remember that day that we left her

Cm                  Bb          G#          G#m
That’s when she said that she knows how it goes
And we sang:
G#             Cm
"Your day will come

G#           Cm
Your day will come

G#           Cm   G
Your day will come"

G#                 Cm     G
And no matter what they say

G#              Cm               F
It won't matter if you pray or if you sin

 G#                      Cm
'Cause in the end it’s all the same

 Cm        G#                  Eb
A young man becomes a soldier

 Bb              G#                         Eb
He’s isn’t much older than a boy and that’s a shame

 Cm           G#                Eb
They will lead him into battle

 Bb                    G#                     Eb
Hand him medals when he comes home rearranged 

Cm           Bb
And at the say-so

Eb                 G#
Of a man with a halo

Cm        Bb          Eb          G#
He will obey; he will fall into place

Cm        Bb          Eb           G#
Remembered by ribbons but never forgiven

Cm                 Bb             G#
He'll shoulder the bulk of the blame

     G#m
What a shame
And we’ll sing
G#              Cm
"Your day will come

G#             Cm
Your day will come

G#            Cm   G
Your day will come"

  G#                 Cm     G
And no matter what they say

  G#              Cm               F
It won't matter if you pray or if you sin

 G#                      Cm
'Cause in the end it’s all the same

Cm    G#           Eb
If I only had a dollar

             Bb         G#                 Eb
For every horror that befalls my fellow man

Cm        G#             Eb
I'd never work another hour

               Bb                G#           Eb
But I'd grow sour from the guilt and bitterness 

 Cm            Bb             Eb           G#
The luck of the draw will determine the fallen

Cm          Bb          Eb           G#
And everyone else will relax and move on

Cm             Bb              Eb              G#
But what will you do when they come looking for you friend?

Cm                 Bb                  G#
I hope that you’re brave and you're strong

          G#m
Through it all

G#           Cm
"Your day will come

G#            Cm
Your day will come

G#             Cm   G
Your day will come"

  G#                 Cm     G
And no matter what they say

    G#              Cm               F
It won't matter if you pray or if you sin

  G#                      Cm
'Cause in the end it’s all the same
