I'd like to ask you some questions

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?

Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?

How do you walk with your head held high?
             Em7      D      C
Can you even look me in the eye?
            G
And tell me why


verse 2:(repeat first verse chords)
Dear Mr. President Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy? Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say? No child is left behind.
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell

You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine!
