Harvey Andrews - Song For Anne Frank
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
G C D G C G
[Verse 1]
C D
Come, lock the door up tight, the night's for sleeping
G
Hiding in the dark, no light must show
C D
And did you paste up pictures of your heroes?
G
To ask of them the answers they don't know
[Verse 2]
Em C D
Cowboy kings who wore the white of freedom
A7 D Em
Where were they to save you from the flame?
C
The yellow star would never shine like silver
D A7 D
And the Sheriff would soon learn to live with shame
[Instrumental]
G C D G C G
[Verse 3]
C D
There was no help for children in the shadows
G
Who never knew the meaning of their pain
C
The reasons give no answers to the questions
D G
And now the circle brings them round again
[Verse 4]
Em C D
I pause inside your room and wait for whispers
A7 D
An echo of a voice that calls your name
Em C
To tell you that the world still welcomes lovers
D A7 D
But the headlines for the news are still the same
Em D
They're still the same, still the same
Em C D G
Still the same, still the same_____
[Instrumental]
G C D G C G
G C D G C G
[Verse 5]
C D
And hidden in the diary they are selling
G
You offer me a mirror for today
C
In which I see the image of tomorrow
D G Em
And I stare awhile, then turn, and walk away
C D C D C G
Walk away___, walk away__________
