Verse 1
G7/C C Cdim7 G7/C C G7/C C
Why do we never get an answer
G7/C C Cdim7(VIII) G9/C C C
When we're knocking at the door
Cdim7 G7/C C G7/C C
With a thousand million questions
G7/C C Cdim7 G9/C C C
About hate and death and war?
Cdim7 G7/C C G7/C C
'Cause when we stop and look around us
G7/C C Cdim7 G9/C C C
There is nothing that we need
Cdim7 G7/C C G7/C C
In a world of persecution
G7/C C Cdim7(VIII) G9/C C
That is burning in its greed

Cdim7 G7/C C G7/C C
Why do we never get an answer
G7/C C Cdim7 G9/C C C
When we're knocking at the door?
Cdim7 G7/C C
Because the truth is hard to swallow
G7/C C Cdim7 G9/C C
That's what the war of love is for

G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
It's not the way that you say it
C G7sus4/D C
When you do those things to me
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
It's more the way that you mean it
C G7sus4/D C(nh)
When you tell me what will be
G7sus4/D F C/E
And when you stop and think about it
C G7sus4/D C
You won't believe it's true
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
That all the love you've been giving
C G7sus4/D C(nh)
Has all been meant for you
C6sus4 C5 G G7 C C6sus4 C C6sus4 C
I'm looking for someone to change my life
G7 C
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
G7sus4/D C/E F Fadd2
And if you could see
C/E G7sus4/D C
What it's done to me
G
Lose the love I knew
G7 G6 C C(nh)
And safely leave here through
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
Between the silence of the mountains
C G7sus4/D C
And the crashing of the sea
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
There lies a land I once lived in
C G7sus4/D C
And she's waiting there for me
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
But in the gray of the morning
C G7sus4/D C
My mind becomes confused
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
Between the dead and the sleeping
C G7sus4/D C
And the road that I must choose
G7sus4/D C/E C G7 C C6sus4 C C6sus4 C
I'm looking for someone to change my life
G7 C
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
G7sus4/D C/E F Fadd2
And if you could see
C G
What it's done to me
C
To lose the love I knew
G7sus4/D C/E F
It safely lead me to
C/E G7sus4/D C
The land that I once knew
G
A-learn as we grow old
C(nh)
The secrets of our soul
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
It's not the way that you say it
C G7sus4/D C
When you do those things to me
G7sus4/D C/E F C/E
It's more the way you really mean it
C G7sus4/D C(nh)
When you tell me what will be
