Intro riff: C2 E2 D2 C2 A2
D2 C2 2X
C
You said you'd light a candle
Am
And you'd say a prayer for me
G F
I feel the light has dimmed and gone
C
Half the world is begging
Am
While the other half steals
G F
Why is everything so wrong?
C
Some days I can't believe
Am
Others I'm on my knees
G F (optional)
Trying to be heard
CHORUS:
C
I was your anger
Am
And you were my fear
G
Now that it's over
F
Of course it's so clear
C
But you were no angel
Am
And I was no sin
G F
Somehow I can't let it go
I can't let it go
B Am
And laughter is my soul's release
F C
But we're not smiling anymore
B Am
Can't we try to win this peace
G
Cause we're never gonna win
F
Never gonna win this war
