Innocent People © Peter Ward 2017
[Intro]
D Em G D x2
Bm G D A x2
[Verse 1]
D Em G D
The whole world is feeling a little bit edgy
D Em G A
There’s never been a war, quite like this before
Bm G D A
This problem has no answer and this problem won’t just go away
Bm G D A
There’s all the innocent people who’ve been dying everyday
[Verse 2]
D Em G D
Turn on the TV, where was it this time?
D Em G A
Relief is mixed with sorrow, it’s a long way from here
Bm G D A
Wrong place wrong time, and that’s what they always say
Bm G D A D
About the innocent people who’ve been dying everyday
[Chorus]
Bm G D A
There’s something we can think about before we bid ourselves goodnight
Em G D A D
We’d better treasure everyday, we don’t know what’s coming our way
[Instrumental]
Bm G D A x4
[Verse 3]
D Em G D
Nowhere can you run, nowhere you can hide
D Em G A
They’re trying to scare us all half to death and fill our lives with fear
Bm G D A
We have to stand together and keep living our lives our way
Bm G D A
For all the innocent people, who’ve been dying everyday.
[Verse 4]
D Em G D
C’mon you leaders of the world sit down and talk about it
D Em G A
Agree to disagree if you must but you better work something out
Bm G D A
They’re filled with anger and hatred and they lock themselves away
Bm G D A D
While more innocent people keep dying every day
[Chorus]
Bm G D A
There’s something we can think about before we bid ourselves goodnight
Em G D A
We’d better treasure everyday, we don’t know what’s coming our way
[Chorus]
Bm G D A
There’s something we can think about before we bid ourselves goodnight
Em G D A D
We’d better treasure everyday, we don’t know what’s coming our way
[Instrumental]
Bm G D A x2
