D               E
When our weary world was young
       C
The struggle of the ancients first began
The gods of love and reason
Sought alone to rule the fate of man

      C                  A
They battled through the ages
But still neither force would yield
The people were divided
Every soul a battlefield
Every soul a battlefield
