D MajorD
It's been a long time coming that I had to say
A augmentedA
When I wake up in the morning all I do is pray
F# minorF#m
For some guidance and protection on the streets today
G+G
And an answer to the questions I ask everyday
D MajorD
So tell me why do the birds that used to fly here
A augmentedA
Tell me why do they come to die here?
F# minorF#m
And all the kids that used to run here
G+G
Tell me why do they load their guns here?
D MajorD
I remember in the days when
A augmentedA
We were one heart, no need to defend
E minorEm
I just wrap my arms around you
G+G
Don't give up, this song is for you

From the tops of the buildings to the streets below
A augmentedA
Between the Wall Street banks and the empty homes
F# minorF#m
Between the lines of the people standing all in a row
G+G
There's a crack in the gutter where a flower grows
D MajorD
Reminding me that everything is possible
A augmentedA
Yeah, reminding me that nothing is impossible

You gotta live for the one that you love you know
