SECTION 1:
Why do we
[F#dim] never
[Cm7] get an
[A#*] answer
When we're
[F#dim] knocking
[Cm7] at the
[A#*] door
There's a
[F#dim] thousand
[Cm7] million
[A#*] questions
About
[F#dim] hate and
[Cm7] death and
[A#*] war
SECTION 2:
Cause when we
[F#dim] stop and
[Cm7] look a-
[A#*]-round us
There is
[F#dim] nothing
[Cm7] that we
[A#*] need
In a
[F#dim] world of
[Cm7] perse-
[A#*]-cution
That is
[F#dim] burning
[Cm7] in its
[A#*] greed
SECTION 3:
[Db] Ahh,
[D#] Ahh,
[Db] Ahh,
[C] Ahh
[Db] Ahh,
[D#] Ahh,
[Db] Ahh,
[C] Ahh

[F#dim] [Cm7] [A#*] //
[F#dim] [Cm7] [A#*]
SECTION 4:
Why do we
[F#dim] never
[Cm7] get an
[A#*] answer
When we're
[F#dim] knocking
[Cm7] at the
[A#*] door
Because the
[F#dim] truth is
[Cm7] hard to
[A#*] swallow
That's what the
[F#dim] war of
[Cm7] love is
[SLOWER] [A#] for
[Cm7]
[A#] [Cm7] //
[A#] [Cm7] //
[A#] [Cm7]
SECTION 5:
It's not the
[D#] way that you
[A#] say it
When you
[F] do those things to
[A#] me
It's more the
[D#] way that you
[A#] mean it
When you
[F] tell me what will
[A# open] be
SECTION 6:
And when you
[D#] stop and think a-
[A#]-bout it
You
[F] won't believe it's
[A#] true
That all the
[D#] love you've been
[A#] giving
Has
[F] all been meant for
[A# open] you
SECTION 7:
I'm looking
[F] for someone to change my
[A#] life
I'm looking
[F] for a miracle in my
[A#] life
And if you could
[D#] see what it's done to
[A#] me
To lose the love I
[F] know, you'd safely lead me
[A# open] through
SECTION 8:
Between the
[D#] silence of the
[A#] mountains
And the
[F] crashing of the
[A#] sea
There lies a
[D#] land I once
[A#] lived in
And she's
[F] waiting there for
[A# open] me
SECTION 9:
But in the
[D#] grey of the
[A#] morning
My
[F] mind becomes con-
[A#]-fused
Between the
[D#] dead and the
[A#] sleeping
And the
[C7] road that I must
[A# open] choose
SECTION 10:
I'm looking
[F] for someone to change my
[A#] life
I'm looking
[F] for a miracle in my
[A#] life
And if you could
[D#] see what it's done to
[F] me
To lose the love I
[A#] knew you'd safely lead me
[D#] to
The land that I once
[A#] knew
To learn as we grow
[F] old the secrets of our
[A# open] soul
SECTION 11:
It's not the
[D#] way that you
[A#] say it
When you
[F] do those things to
[A#] me
It's more the
[D#] way you really
[A#] mean it
When you
[F] tell me what will
[A# open] be
