Am                      E  
In a world of education there's no time for compassion
Am                           E  
Life's a fire, never ending, bringing pain and then befriending
            C#m                D
And like a fire that burns no light
              Em         A             E
And drifts to heaven, so ends another life

D                 G               D                  C E
Is there time to care, it's only fair that life goes on
    D             G              D                E
And on and on and on 'til in the end you don't belong

Chorus:
A         D      A   D   A        E
So ends another life to let this world go on
A              D        A    D           E
Don't cry for pity my friend, you never gave none

There's a hunter with his gun pointing upwards to the sun
Thinks a bird can feel no pain, if it can it won't again
And like a fire that burns no light
And drifts to heaven, so ends another life

Is there time to care, it's only fair that life goes on
And on and on and on 'til in the end you can't go on

Chorus - x2

So ends another life to let this world go on
Don't cry for pity my friend
