How long can this go on

as far as I can see

FF
Here I will stay, on my

own, I will pray, all

alone, on this stage

in the heartland
Verse 2:
FF
When the color of your skin
DmDm
decides where you begin
BB
then thats what lies within

So if you walk alone
DmDm
while others cast a stone
BB
stay on your own

The changing of the new tide
C majorC BB
something you can't hide

Take your stand
C majorC
this truth will fade away

Here I will stay, on my

in the heartland
