Compassion chords by Brittney Spencer

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
     G
If a half-empty stomach makes you hangry
 Em7
Imagine life for people on the street
     C
If a neighbor's untamed yard can drive you crazy
Am7                                      D
Imagine seeing bombs break through their concrete


Verse 2:
G
Image is something of importance
         Em7
But only when you've got anything to prove
          C
Well, the world just don't seem fair when all it's left you
   Am7                  D
Is little or nothing to lose

Chorus:
C
Live your life and have your fun
    G                         D
And share it with everyone you love
C
Raise your kids and raise your glass
    G                            D
For every single freedom that we have
                C                                  Am7
But while we're looking for the next best thing to happen
 G             D                G
Heaven pray we all find some compassion


Interlude:
G


Verse 3:
             G
All of those bodies walking signs across the pavement
Em7
Crying out for justice to prevail
     C
It's not another traffic inconvenience
    Am7                                 C
One day, we'll see it's history that we made
             Am7                        D
Could we let empathy repair what hatred breaks?


Chorus:
C
Live your life and have your fun
    G                         D
And share it with everyone you love
C
Raise your kids and raise your glass
    G                            D
For every single freedom that we have
            C                                  Am7
While we're looking for the next best thing to happen
G              D                Em7
Heaven pray we all find some compassion


Interlude:
Am7


Bridge:
     C
It's not always a big event
Em
Time or money that we spent
G                                    D
Tryna make the world a better place
     C
It's usually just a helping hand
   Em
An open mind, the will to stand
     G                                  D
Those hard conversations with folks you thought you'd figured out
D                            C
 Yeah, that's what it's all about
                      Em     D
That's what it's all about


Chorus:
    C             D    C
Oh, live your life and have your fun
C    G                          D
 And share it with everyone you love
C
Raise your kids and raise your glass
    G                            D
For every single freedom that we have
     C                                  Am7
Feel good when you latch on to that new catchphrase
            G                 D                   Em
Change your style, change the channel, change your  name
                Am7                                C
But while we're looking for the next best thing to happen
    G              D                Em      Am7
Oh, Heaven pray we all find some compassion


Coda:

Oh, Heaven pray we all find some compassion
