Intro:

 F#m   E6   Bm7   F#m     F#m   E6   Bm7   F#m

      F#m                                   E6  
There was no way they could have known that morning

    Bm7                       F#m
But they awoke upon a fateful day,

  F#m                             E6  
A killer wind came down without a warning,

    Bm7                           F#m                         
And no one had the chance to get away.

E6   Bm7   F#m

    F#m                                       E6
The firemen were brave: they fought with with honor.

        Bm7                                F#m
But the blaze was more than it appeared to be.

    F#m                               E6  
And one by one they fell beside their comrades,

    Bm7                             F#m   
The victims of a foe they could not see

----------------------------------------------------
CHORUS:

D                   F#m
     Mama where are you?

D                       F#m
     Papa where did you go?

    D                                      F#m
And where are all the children who used to play here?

Db             D         F#m
   Only Heaven Know......s.

----------------------------------------------------

F#m                           E6  
What they saw defied all explanation.

Bm7                                 F#m
Someone said the trees were glowing red.

     F#m                             E6
They say the light came from the radiation.

    Bm7                           F#m
But maybe it's the Spirits of the Dead

E6   Bm7   F#m

--------------------
Repeat CHORUS, Above
--------------------

F#m                                  E6
Gone the homes, the gardens, and the playgrounds...

Bm7                                   F#m
Gone the souls who made their livings here.

E6   Bm7   F#m

     F#m                             E6
They say this place will always be a Ghost Town.

   Bm7                      F#m
It will be for at least 600 years.

The words below are adopted in part from the Ghost Town
lyrics and fit its melody.  They are respectfully
dedicated to the victims and survivors of the
September 11 2001 World Trade Center attack:

 F#m   E6   Bm7   F#m    F#m   E6   Bm7   F#m

      F#m                                   E6  
There was no way they could have known that morning

    Bm7                       F#m
As they awoke upon that fateful day,

  F#m                             E6  
A killer sword came down without a warning,

    Bm7                               F#m                         
And with a stroke they all were blown away.

E6   Bm7   F#m

    F#m                                       E6
The firemen were brave: they fought with with honor.

        Bm7                               F#m
But the hell above was sworn to make them die.

    F#m                                   E6  
And one by one they fell, the World Trade Towers

    Bm7                           F#m   
The victims of a foe from foreign skies.

----------------------------------------------------
CHORUS:

D                   F#m
     Mama where are you?

D                       F#m
     Papa where did you go?

    D                                      F#m
And where are all the children you used to care for?

Db               D         F#m
     Only Heaven Know......s.

----------------------------------------------------

F#m                                    E6
The ways they died defied all words of horror

     Bm7                                     F#m   
Some jumped or burned; In thousands did they fall.

    F#m                               E6
The seas of tears shed by the victims mourners

     Bm7                          F#m   
Will never drown the vision of it all.

CHORUS
---------------

F#m                               E6
Some will say they really had it coming


Bm7                                     F#m 
Some will say they're innocent, one and all

F#m                           E6
Either way the sad result was stunning


        Bm7                                      F#m 
There's hell to pay when your back's against the wall.
