Lord, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's gettin' too dark, too dark to see
Felt like knockin' on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
I feel like knockin' on heaven's door

Lord these guns have caused too much pain
This town will never be the same
So for the bairns of Dunblane
We ask please never again

The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green
He leadeth me
The quiet waters by

Lord put all these guns in the ground
We just can't shoot them anymore
It's time that we spread some love around
Before we're knockin' on heavens door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Lord put all these guns in the ground
We just can't shoot them anymore
It's time that we spread some love around
Before we're knockin' on heavens door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
I've been there too many times before

THROW THESE GUNS AWAY - 21/12/1996
AA with KNOCKIN' ON HEAVENS DOOR
1 week at #1 - 15 weeks on chart

When evening comes and light is fading
And your heart is heavy from the tears
Lift up your eyes and look to heaven
For 17 new stars have appeared

They shine their love down upon us
And the message of their love is clear
Lost familiar voices softly whispering in the wind
Pleading that this time we will hear

Throw these guns away
Throw these guns away
They've caused this world too much pain
Let our old friends play
In a safer day
Say the bairns of Dunblane

Scottish verse?

Throw these guns away
Throw these guns away
They've caused this world too much pain
Let the children play
Let the children play
For the bairns of Dunblane

We're building the roads that the future travels
We can ensure that no other town must bear
More lost familiar voices softly whispering in the wind
Pleading that this time we will hear

Throw these guns away
Throw these guns away
They've caused this world too much pain
Let the children play
Let the children play
For the bairns of Dunblane

Throw these guns away
Throw these guns away
They've caused this world too much pain
Let the children play
Let the children play
For the bairns of Dunblane
