GDCG So many times I've been fooling myself G/F#EmDCG It's a hard hand to play falls on nobody else GDCGG/F# Those in the city reaching out to grab hold EmD Of something they've only heard about CG And never been shown EmA7 Who do you turn to and what do you say EmA7 When she's got the power and she got the way C Does it matter at all A7 Who survives and who falls C When we live under darkness EmCEmC And hide behind walls
SOLO
GDCG Why would anyone even try to hold sway G/F#EmD Over somebody else CG In such a small way GDCG Where are the answers to the problems we face G/F#Em Who would teach us DCG About sharing and living in grace EmA7 Who do you turn to and what do you say EmA7 When she's got the power and she got the way C Does it matter at all A Who survives and who falls C When we live under darkness EmCEmGDCG And hide behind walls
