Intro: Am C G Am C G Am x2 

Am C    G  Am                 C     G     Am 
16 kids 16 ways they shot my babies by mistake 
Am       C          G       Am          C    G       Am  
I'm all alone on a midnight ride my 16 kids all have died 

C           Am            C        Am 
They ain't coming back... it's too late 
C            Am                        E 
They shot my babies but they killed my faith 


Am         C       G   Am              C       G     Am  
I haven't slept in 14 days... now it's time to barricade 
Am     C   G         Am          C    G       Am  
Myself in these four walls my 16 kids all are gone 

C           Am            C        Am 
They ain't coming back... it's too late 
C            Am                        E 
They shot my babies but they killed my faith 

solo 

Am           C       G  Am  
I worked so hard for 40 years 
Am          C          G          Am  
I taught my kids I had nothing to fear 
Am            C      G        Am  
Then one by one they got shot down 
Am           C          G          Am  
The youngest one held a gun to his ear 

C           Am            C        Am 
They ain't coming back... it's too late 
C            Am                        E 
They shot my babies but they killed my faith 

solo 2 

C           Am            C        Am

They shot my babies but they killed my faith
