[Intro]
 Em   Bm   F#m   Em   Bm
[Verse 1]
    Em      Bm       Em              Bm
Ils sont tombés sans trop savoir pourquoi
        A           D         G                D
Hommes, femmes et enfants qui ne voulaient que vivre
Em              Bm        F#7           B4  Bm
Avec des gestes lourds comme des hommes i--vres
F#7           G             F#7         Bm
Mutilés, massacrés les yeux ouverts d'effroi
[Verse 2]
    Em      G      A              D
Ils sont tombés en invoquant leur Dieu
         F#m       B          G           F#m
Au seuil de leur église ou le pas de leur porte
Em                D        F#7       Bm
En troupeaux de désert titubant en cohorte
F#7              G              F#7        Bm
Terrassés par la soif, la faim, le fer, le feu
[Chorus]
Em             Bm        Em            Bm
Nul n'éleva la voix dans un monde euphorique
   Em            G        A               D
Tandis que croupissait un peuple dans son sang
     G         F#m      Em           D
L' Europe découvrait le jazz et sa musique
    Db              F#        Db                   F#7
Les plaintes de trompettes couvraient les cris d'enfants
    Bm      F#7   G              F#7
Ils sont tombés pudiquement sans bruit
       Em            Bm          Em           Bm
Par milliers, par millions, sans que le monde bouge
  G            A      G               D
Devenant un instant minuscules fleurs rouges
  Em                      Bm       F#7      Bm
Recouverts par un vent de sable et puis d'oubli
[Bridge]
F#m        Bm
[Verse 3]
    Em      Bm      Em               Bm
Ils sont tombés les yeux pleins de soleil
         A            D    G           D  Bm
Comme un oiseau qu'en vol une balle fraca-sse
Em                    Bm    F#7             B4  Bm
Pour mourir n'importe où et sans laisser de tra-ces
F#7            G            F#7        Bm
Ignorés, oubli-és dans leur dernier sommeil
[Verse 4]
    Em      G      A           D
Ils sont tombés en croyant ingénus
          F#m         B           G           F#m
Que leurs enfants pourraient continuer leur enfance
Em                  D              F#7       Bm
Qu'un jour ils fouleraient des ter-res d'espérance
F#7             G(7)           F#7          Bm
Dans des pays ouverts d'hommes aux mains tendues
[Chorus]
Em                D          F#7            Bm
Moi je suis de ce peuple qui dort sans sépulture
     F#7          G        A           Bm
Qu'a choisi de mourir sans abdiquer sa foi
    G             F#m    Em            D
Qui n'a jamais baissé la tête sous l'injure
    Db            F#      Db               F#7
Qui survit malgré tout et qui ne se plaint pas
    Bm      F#(7)    G              F#(7)
Ils sont tombés pour entrer dans la nuit
    Em        Bm       Em              Bm
Éternelle des temps au bout de leur courage
   G             A         G             D
La mort les a frappés sans demander leur âge
    Em                Bm            Em     F#7     Bm
Puisqu'ils étaient fautifs d'être enfants  d'Ar-mé-nie ...
[Outro]
 Em   Bm   F#m   Em   Bm   Em   F#7   Bm
