Key: :[C#] (w: Justin Hayward)
INTRO:
[C#] [D#m7] [G#] [F#]
[E] [F#] [E] [D#] :
[x3]
[G#7sus4] [C#*]
[Adim] [D#m7] [C#*] :
[x2]
SECTION 1:
Why do we
[Adim] never
[D#m7] get an
[C#*] answer
When we're
[Adim] knocking
[D#m7] at the
[C#*] door
There's a
[Adim] thousand
[D#m7] million
[C#*] questions
About
[Adim] hate and
[D#m7] death and
[C#*] war
SECTION 2:
Cause when we
[Adim] stop and
[D#m7] look a-
[C#*]-round us
There is
[Adim] nothing
[D#m7] that we
[C#*] need
In a
[Adim] world of
[D#m7] perse-
[C#*]-cution
That is
[Adim] burning
[D#m7] in its
[C#*] greed
SECTION 3:
[E] Ahh,
[F#] Ahh,
[E] Ahh,
[D#] Ahh
[E] Ahh,
[F#] Ahh,
[E] Ahh,
[D#] Ahh

SECTION 4:
Why do we
[Adim] never
[D#m7] get an
[C#*] answer
When we're
[Adim] knocking
[D#m7] at the
[C#*] door
Because the
[Adim] truth is
[D#m7] hard to
[C#*] swallow
That's what the
[Adim] war of
[D#m7] love is
[SLOWER] [C#] for
[D#m7]
[C#] [D#m7] //
[C#] [D#m7] //
[C#] [D#m7]
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
[D#7] 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
