From Blood of Man
Tabbed by Drew Langworthy


C                                   G
Every step I take takes me farther from you
                    F                    C      G
Every move I make reminds me that I'll always love you
C                                           G
Since you were a child we built our lives around you
                            F            C              G
How'm I supposed to live in this world we made without you?


F                     G F          C    G
Sometimes late at night I go the field
F                    G F
Is that where you are?
F                     C   G
Are you a shooting star?
F                  G F
Can you say my name?
F                C     G
Darling can you hear me?
F                        G F                   C      G
Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
F       G  F           G     F           G      C
It's right here, it's right here, it's right here


C                                        G
When you joined the war we were so proud of you
                        F               C          G
You seemed so grown up, living life the way we taught you
     C                                            G         
Then your first letter came, it sounded nothing like you
                           F                   C     G
It took all my strength to keep myself from running to you


F                     G F          C    G
Sometimes late at night I go the field
F                    G F
Is that where you are?
F                     C   G
Are you a shooting star?
F                  G F
Can you say my name?
F                C     G
Darling can you hear me?
F                        G F                   C      G
Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
F       G  F           G     F           G      C
It's right here, it's right here, it's right here


C         F        C      C      F          C
And it will always be until the sun dries the ocean
C           F      C              F
And you will always be my little one


Am   F   C  C/B  Dm   F   C  C/B


Am                     F              C     C/B
If I was the President, if I was that man
Dm                               F                C     C/B
I would walk out with those kids, out across the sand
Am                      F                C        C/B
If I was the President, if I was that brave
Dm                         F                        C      C/B
I would take a shovel, then dig each child their grave
Am                       F                    C      C/B
If I was the President, and my world turned black
Am                      F                   C     C/B
I would want no victory, I'd just want you back


Am                     F                   C      C/B
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
Dm                     F                   C      C/B       
I don't want no victory, I just want you back     
Am                     F                   C      C/B
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
Dm                     F                   C         G       
I don't want no victory, I just want you back     


F                     G F          C    G
Sometimes late at night I go the field
F                    G F
Is that where you are?
F                     C   G
Are you a shooting star?
F                  G F
Can you say my name?
F                C     G
Darling can you hear me?
F                        G F                   C      G
Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
F       G  F           G     F           G      C   G
It's right here, it's right here, it's right here  
F       G  F           G     F           G      C   G
It's right here, it's right here, it's right here 
F       G  F           G     F           G      C   G
It's right here, it's right here, it's right here
