                  WHAT WE`RE MARCHING TOWARD
                       JEFFREY MARTIN

CAPO: 2nd FRET

INTRO: (Played like the first 2 lines in the Verse)
C  F C   G F C

VERSE:
  C                           F          C
Share with me scriptures and help me to know
      G         F            C
It`s easier to sink than to rise
     C                            F           C
The black and white bullets that fly from my mouth
     G           F         C    C
Are hand-picked tired old lines

         C                                F         C
And my shoes have worn through from this walking around
      G       F               C
It`s time to stand still and fight
          C                         F      C
Even the loudest of words will not make a sound
    G            F               C
Compared to the sound of what`s right


CHORUS:
F        C          G      C
I saw a man on the news tonight
 F              C            G
Crying for his child in the war
    F             C          G              C
He looked at the camera and asked with his eyes
       F               G          C    C
Do we know what we`re marching toward


VERSE:
        C                        F          C
In the halls and the courts the dead kings cry out
 G          F            C
Power is a slow turning wheel
       C                            F               C
Oh it came around for us and it`ll come around for you
         G         F            C    C
It only gives what it can then steal

         C                              F           C
And the high headed men that build the engine that runs
     G        F            C
Are cold and dead in the ground
           C                               F          C
What they built when they lived when they died was undone
 G                 F          C   C
Except for what`s holding us down


CHORUS:
F        C          G      C
I saw a man on the news tonight
 F              C            G
Crying for his child in the war
    F             C          G              C
He looked at the camera and asked with his eyes
       F               G          C
Do we know what we`re marching toward


INSTRUMENTAL:

C  F C G F C  C


VERSE:
      C                        F             C
Now choose to believe in that silver tongue dream
G          F       C
Or try to rightly see
          C                       F          C
That the strings you feel at the end of the day
         G            F         C   C
Are the same strings pulling on me

            C                       F         C
And if the truth can be beaten and tied to a chair
             G      F        C
And made to say whatever we want
          C                       F           C
Then the words that we serve are nothing but ours
         G          F         C  C
And our God is not God after all


CHORUS:
F        C          G      C
I saw a man on the news tonight
 F              C            G
Crying for his child in the war
    F             C          G              C
He looked at the camera and asked with his eyes
       F               G          C
Do we know what we`re marching toward


OUTRO:
       F               G          C
Do we know what we`re marching toward
       F               G          C
Do we know what we`re marching toward
