Early one day 
F          Am          Bb  Am 
Yves had something to say 
D        Gm    C      F  C 
Marched right at the head 
Gm  C              F  Am  Gm  C 
Someone shot him dead 

F   Am          Bb    Am  Gm  F 
So all of his friends 
 F          Am         Bb  Am 
They lit a candle for him 
D          Gm    C   F  C 
And all through the night 
Gm  C          F    Am  Gm  C 
So much candlelight 

  F             Am            Bb    Am  Gm  F 
I know how you think you're afraid 
          F                 Am          Bb   Am 
Don't you know that it's still not too late? 
D    Gm  C  F  C 
You can go now 
Gm    C             F   Am  Gm  C 
Yves has shown you how 
            F             Am          Bb   Am  Gm  F 
And there's nothing that you need to know 
F        Am      Bb  Am 
Just get up and go 
D   Gm  C       F    C 
Go now and be blessed 
Gm        C         F  Am  Gm  C 
Yves has done the rest
