Verse 1:

Cm            Ab9        Bb9         F             
Where are the children we lost not long ago
Cm           Ab9       Bb9                       
Feel for the Mothers who weep for them
Cm             Ab9             Bb9             F              
I pray for the Fathers who are standing by their side
   Bb       Ab9               Bb9
In their world of pain and suffering

Verse 2:

Have you ever seen the look in a hungry child's eyes
They can't eat money or promises
Give them your smile and try holding out your hand
Let them know you're there, let them know you're there

Chorus: 

Eb/F                 Ab9no3             
Why is it always the ones that we love
Eb                          Bb9
Are the ones that will never come home
Eb/F                Ab9no3                     Bbaddd9              
Why must all of the bridges we cross take their toll
Eb/F                Ab9no3
Always remember the voice in your head
Eb                    Bb9
Speaks to you when you're alone
Ab9
And it comforts you
       Bb9                               Cm
From the top of your heart to the bottom of your soul

Verse 3:

You can swim in a river of tears they cry
For they sleep on the winds of uncertainty
Show us a sign and make us believe again
There's no other way, oh, there's no other way
