SECTION 1:
Why do we
[D#dim] never
[Am7] get an
[G*] answer
When we're
[D#dim] knocking
[Am7] at the
[G*] door
There's a
[D#dim] thousand
[Am7] million
[G*] questions
About
[D#dim] hate and
[Am7] death and
[G*] war
SECTION 2:
Cause when we
[D#dim] stop and
[Am7] look a-
[G*]-round us
There is
[D#dim] nothing
[Am7] that we
[G*] need
In a
[D#dim] world of
[Am7] perse-
[G*]-cution
That is
[D#dim] burning
[Am7] in its
[G*] greed
SECTION 3:
[Bb] Ahh,
[C] Ahh,
[Bb] Ahh,
[A] Ahh
[Bb] Ahh,
[C] Ahh,
[Bb] Ahh,
[A] Ahh

SECTION 4:
Why do we
[D#dim] never
[Am7] get an
[G*] answer
When we're
[D#dim] knocking
[Am7] at the
[G*] door
Because the
[D#dim] truth is
[Am7] hard to
[G*] swallow
That's what the
[D#dim] war of
[Am7] love is
[SLOWER] [G] for
[Am7]
[G] [Am7] //
[G] [Am7] //
[G] [Am7]
SECTION 5:
It's not the
[C] way that you
[G] say it
When you
[D] do those things to
[G] me
It's more the
[C] way that you
[G] mean it
When you
[D] tell me what will
[G open] be
SECTION 6:
And when you
[C] stop and think a-
[G]-bout it
You
[D] won't believe it's
[G] true
That all the
[C] love you've been
[G] giving
Has
[D] all been meant for
[G open] you
SECTION 7:
I'm looking
[D] for someone to change my
[G] life
I'm looking
[D] for a miracle in my
[G] life
And if you could
[C] see what it's done to
[G] me
To lose the love I
[D] know, you'd safely lead me
[G open] through
SECTION 8:
Between the
[C] silence of the
[G] mountains
And the
[D] crashing of the
[G] sea
There lies a
[C] land I once
[G] lived in
And she's
[D] waiting there for
[G open] me
SECTION 9:
But in the
[C] grey of the
[G] morning
My
[D] mind becomes con-
[G]-fused
Between the
[C] dead and the
[G] sleeping
And the
[A7] road that I must
[G open] choose
SECTION 10:
I'm looking
[D] for someone to change my
[G] life
I'm looking
[D] for a miracle in my
[G] life
And if you could
[C] see what it's done to
[D] me
To lose the love I
[G] knew you'd safely lead me
[C] to
The land that I once
[G] knew
To learn as we grow
[D] old the secrets of our
[G open] soul
SECTION 11:
It's not the
[C] way that you
[G] say it
When you
[D] do those things to
[G] me
It's more the
[C] way you really
[G] mean it
When you
[D] tell me what will
[G open] be
