SECTION 1:
Why do we [G#dim] never [Dm7] get an [C*] answer
When we're [G#dim] knocking [Dm7] at the [C*] door
There's a [G#dim] thousand [Dm7] million [C*] questions
About [G#dim] hate and [Dm7] death and [C*] war
SECTION 2:
Cause when we [G#dim] stop and [Dm7] look a-[C*]-round us
There is [G#dim] nothing [Dm7] that we [C*] need
In a [G#dim] world of [Dm7] perse-[C*]-cution
That is [G#dim] burning [Dm7] in its [C*] greed
SECTION 4:
Why do we [G#dim] never [Dm7] get an [C*] answer
When we're [G#dim] knocking [Dm7] at the [C*] door
Because the [G#dim] truth is [Dm7] hard to [C*] swallow
That's what the [G#dim] war of [Dm7] love is [SLOWER][C] for [Dm7] [C][Dm7] // [C][Dm7] // [C][Dm7]
SECTION 5:
It's not the [F] way that you [C] say it
When you [G] do those things to [C] me
It's more the [F] way that you [C] mean it
When you [G] tell me what will [C open] be
SECTION 6:
And when you [F] stop and think a-[C]-bout it
You [G] won't believe it's [C] true
That all the [F] love you've been [C] giving
Has [G] all been meant for [C open] you
SECTION 7:
I'm looking [G] for someone to change my [C] life
I'm looking [G] for a miracle in my [C] life
And if you could [F] see what it's done to [C] me
To lose the love I [G] know, you'd safely lead me [C open] through
SECTION 8:
Between the [F] silence of the [C] mountains
And the [G] crashing of the [C] sea
There lies a [F] land I once [C] lived in
And she's [G] waiting there for [C open] me
SECTION 9:
But in the [F] grey of the [C] morning
My [G] mind becomes con-[C]-fused
Between the [F] dead and the [C] sleeping
And the [D7] road that I must [C open] choose
SECTION 10:
I'm looking [G] for someone to change my [C] life
I'm looking [G] for a miracle in my [C] life
And if you could [F] see what it's done to [G] me
To lose the love I [C] knew you'd safely lead me [F] to
The land that I once [C] knew
To learn as we grow [G] old the secrets of our [C open] soul
SECTION 11:
It's not the [F] way that you [C] say it
When you [G] do those things to [C] me
It's more the [F] way you really [C] mean it
When you [G] tell me what will [C open] be
