EVERY TEAR
Matthew West


[Intro]

 A minorAm | E minorEm | DmDm | FF


[Verse 1]

  A minorAm                     E minorEm
The world just took another spin in the wrong direction
       DmDm        FF
Hate found a handgun, and now nobody feels safe
    A minorAm                       E minorEm
I gotta turn off the news so my kids don’t see another tragedy
           DmDm      FF
I wanna let em stay innocent, at least for one more day

          A minorAm                E minorEm
Cause just when I think it can’t get worse, it gets worse
             DmDm
And there are no words to say
             FF
How much more can our hearts take?


[Chorus]

     C majorC             E minorEm
In this shattered place, where the shadows cover
     A minorAm           FF
Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other
     C majorC            E minorEm
My heart aches for home, right now more than ever
     A minorAm         FF
But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven
     A minorAm        G+G       FF
And the promise that the day is drawing near
             A minorAm   E minorEm
You will wipe away every tear
             DmDm   FF
You will wipe away every tear


[Verse 2]

       A minorAm              E minorEm
There will be no more terror, no more riots in the street
      DmDm            FF
And we will all be seen, beyond the color of our skin

     A minorAm              E minorEm
No more fighting, no more war, no more hunger left ignored
     DmDm
No more sickness, no more pain
        FF
We’re here for now but we won’t stay


[Chorus]

     C majorC             E minorEm
In this shattered place, where the shadows cover
     A minorAm           FF
Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other
     C majorC            E minorEm
My heart aches for home, right now more than ever
     A minorAm         FF
But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven
     A minorAm           G+G    FF
And the promise that the day is drawing near
             C majorC    G+G
You will wipe away every tear
             A minorAm    FF
You will wipe away every tear  Ooooh


[Bridge]

       G+G      A minorAm   FF
The Lord is close to the broken-hearted
       G+G      A minorAm   FF
The Lord is close to the broken-hearted
      G+G      A minorAm   FF
Oh Lord be close to the broken-hearted
      DmDm
We need you now
       FF
We need you now


[Chorus]

     C majorC             E minorEm
In this shattered place, where the shadows cover
     A minorAm           FF
Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other
     C majorC            E minorEm
My heart aches for home, right now more than ever
     A minorAm         FF
But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven
     A minorAm        G+G       FF
And the promise that the day is drawing near
         A minorAm         G+G      FF
When your great light will make the darkness disappear
                C majorC      G+G
And you will wipe away every tear, every tear
             A minorAm    FF
You will wipe away every tear


[Outro]

     A minorAm              E minorEm
Lord be close to the broken-hearted
     DmDm              FF
Lord be close to the broken-hearted
