==VERSE==
C         Am Em
Losing my control
               C         Am  Em
Here it is the day I have to go

Just sit beside me
C           Am   Em
I can't let this show
                   C                 Am Em
How sick I feel to leave you so alone
                   C                    
God I'm terrified

C                    Am   Em
We've lost respect for decency
               C                      Am   Em
When one could turn our world into an ant pile
C                       Am  Em
We run circles, no direction do I see
               C                       Am  Em
The dust has blinded you, the dust has blinded me


==PRE–CHORUS==
F                      G
I kissed her on the cheek and then I waved goodbye
F                               G
She had the saddest look I've seen in years – a kangaroo cry
F                   G                      
A warm pathetic ocean flow we have to live by
F                       
We have to live by because we have to live


==CHORUS==
C                      
And you choose to break our families 
G                         (C)       F
Tell me you've used all precautions known

Now stand beside the ones who stood alone
C                                           G
How long will we have to sing until you finally bring our sons, 
       (C)    F
Our daughters home?

We'll let the prayers start healing, what time's been stealing


==Interlude== 
C Am Em (x2)


==VERSE==
C                      Am Em
We only want to feel as close as we can be
C                         Am       Em
Use hands for holding on to your precious family
C                         Am       Em
Just believe in all who shine the light to help you see
             C                  Am  Em
Cause if I believe in you, will you believe in me?


==PRE–CHORUS==
F                      G
I kissed her on the cheek and then I waved goodbye
F                               G
She had the saddest look I've seen in years – a kangaroo cry
F                   G                      
A warm pathetic ocean flow we have to live by
F                       
We have to live by because we have to live


==CHORUS==
C                      
And you choose to break our families 
G                         (C)       F

       (C)    F

                                                          C
We'll let the prayers start healing, what time's been stealing
      G            F

==OUTRO==
C                G            F
Keep hanging on, keep hanging on
C                G            F
Keep hanging on, keep hanging on
                                                     C    Am  Em
