Chords with lyrics

Let the healing begin

Intro: A minorAm FF

Verse I

A minorAm              FF
I've kept it inside much too long
       A minorAm
there's no relief
A minorAm               FF
carried it around just like a stone
       A minorAm
too heavy for me
FF
I have paid the price for standing
G+G        E minorEm   DmDm
on the outside looking in
FF          G+G    A minorAm
it's time to let the healing begin

verse II

A minorAm                    FF
a boy is strung out, he's going through hell
      A minorAm
his mother weeps
A minorAm                    FF
his spirit is broken and there's nothing left
         A minorAm
just a terrible need
FF            G+G             FF
and the days are marked, by the heaviness of the heart
E minorEm    DmDm   FF     G+G    A minorAm
it never mends, until the healing begins

Chorus

C majorC         G+G             C majorC
and the tension prowls the street like an animal
C majorC         G+G            C majorC
the people stay behind their locks and chains
     FF
it's a shame
G+G               A minorAm    E minorEm   DmDm
when so many are trying their best to live as one
FF               G+G      A minorAm
and the smoke from the fires covers up the sun

verse III

A minorAm              FF
a young girl is lying in the dirt
         A minorAm
her dreams ended there
A minorAm                   FF
caught in the crossfire on somebody's turf
       A minorAm
hatred in the air

FF            G+G
it' a voice that never sings
FF           G+G
a winter without the spring
     Em/Dm
it never ends

FF          G+G     A minorAm    E minorEm DmDm
it's time to let the healing begin
FF          G+G     A minorAm
it's time to let the healing begin
