c g am TWICE
C
g am
I stopped to watch the news again today
C g am
Typical sad stories time delayed
F g am
You know it always makes me feel so bad
C g am
To see the world turning out this way
VERSE

Most times I can turn and walk away
And close my mind to what the vultures say
But if I had 100 lives I never could forget
The pictures that I saw today
CHORUS
F am
The wind across the prairie nights
G am
The silver sands the northern lights
C G AM
The land that runs from sea to shining sea
F Am
Some of us are losing sight
G Am
Doing wrong in the name of right
C g AM
When everyones afraid no one is free
LEAD
BREAK OVER c-g-am c-g-am-f-g-am-c-g-am

You and I we sometimes wonder why
The innocent ones always seem to die
Our children ask what kind of God would take someone you love
And never even let you say goodbye
VERSE

But God is not the one who took their lives
Or teaches that the strong alone survive
The lillies of the fields lift up their glory to the sky
To prove that words of hate are always lies
CHORUS
