=============

Chords transcribed by Leigh Palfrey.  Added 10-Jan-2017.

INTRO:
G C G
 
VERSE:
                              Dm                              Gm
No politicians just compassion, Celebrity it's out of fashion
                                Dm                      
Innocence don't take a trashing on the playground floor 
Gm                                     Dm                    Gm
Constable paints awesome skies instead of macing suspects eyes
                                       Dm                         
And bankers pay is justified and all nations come in peace
 
CHORUS:
 Bb      F              Eb                   F       
We are gunmen all, the guardians of the watchtowers
 Bb                F        Eb                F       
Lighting up the beacons to bring our riders home
 Bb         F             Eb                 F        
We are gunmen all, the guardians of the watchtowers
 Bb               F          Eb              Gm       
Lighting up the beacons to bring our riders, home
 
VERSE:
Sun rises on the village green
Not digitised on a flat screen
Lovers kisses can be seen
Darkness holds no fear
 
Everyone drinks socially;
Not because they're crippled emotionally
and all our sleep is trouble free
wrapped up in caring arms

CHORUS: 
We are gunmen all,
the guardians of the watch tower;
Lighting up the beacons
to bring our riders home
 
We are gunmen all,
the guardians of the watch tower;
Lighting up the beacons
to bring our riders home

VERSE: 
Our hopes are old and dressed in rags
The faded colour of many flags
and the, broken metal of our tags;
keeps this dream alive
 
Well, mistrust could never last
The future lives and not the past
We are only shadows cast
just trying to hold on
 
We are gunmen all,
the guardians of the watch tower;
Lighting up the beacons
to bring our riders home
