SECTION 1:
Why do we
[Gdim] never
[C#m7] get an
[B*] answer
When we're
[Gdim] knocking
[C#m7] at the
[B*] door
There's a
[Gdim] thousand
[C#m7] million
[B*] questions
About
[Gdim] hate and
[C#m7] death and
[B*] war
SECTION 2:
Cause when we
[Gdim] stop and
[C#m7] look a-
[B*]-round us
There is
[Gdim] nothing
[C#m7] that we
[B*] need
In a
[Gdim] world of
[C#m7] perse-
[B*]-cution
That is
[Gdim] burning
[C#m7] in its
[B*] greed
SECTION 3:
[D] Ahh,
[E] Ahh,
[D] Ahh,
[C#] Ahh
[D] Ahh,

[Gdim] [C#m7] [B*]
SECTION 4:
Why do we
[Gdim] never
[C#m7] get an
[B*] answer
When we're
[Gdim] knocking
[C#m7] at the
[B*] door
Because the
[Gdim] truth is
[C#m7] hard to
[B*] swallow
That's what the
[Gdim] war of
[C#m7] love is
[SLOWER] [B] for
[C#m7]
[B] [C#m7] //
[B] [C#m7] //
[B] [C#m7]
SECTION 5:
It's not the
[E] way that you
[B] say it
When you
[F#] do those things to
[B] me
It's more the
[E] way that you
[B] mean it
When you
[F#] tell me what will
[B open] be
SECTION 6:
And when you
[E] stop and think a-
[B]-bout it
You
[F#] won't believe it's
[B] true
That all the
[E] love you've been
[B] giving
Has
[F#] all been meant for
[B open] you
SECTION 7:
I'm looking
[F#] for someone to change my
[B] life
I'm looking
[F#] for a miracle in my
[B] life
And if you could
[E] see what it's done to
[B] me
To lose the love I
[F#] know, you'd safely lead me
[B open] through
SECTION 8:
Between the
[E] silence of the
[B] mountains
And the
[F#] crashing of the
[B] sea
There lies a
[E] land I once
[B] lived in
And she's
[F#] waiting there for
[B open] me
SECTION 9:
But in the
[E] grey of the
[B] morning
My
[F#] mind becomes con-
[B]-fused
Between the
[E] dead and the
[B] sleeping
And the
[C#7] road that I must
[B open] choose
SECTION 10:
I'm looking
[F#] for someone to change my
[B] life
I'm looking
[F#] for a miracle in my
[B] life
And if you could
[E] see what it's done to
[F#] me
To lose the love I
[B] knew you'd safely lead me
[E] to
The land that I once
[B] knew
To learn as we grow
[F#] old the secrets of our
[B open] soul
SECTION 11:
It's not the
[E] way that you
[B] say it
When you
[F#] do those things to
[B] me
It's more the
[E] way you really
[B] mean it
When you
[F#] tell me what will
[B open] be
