Right folks, brilliant song, use the same chords on the piano if you want. If you can't
do barre chords (like myself, I'm a bassist) just use the upper four strings for that F.
Am
There are children standing here,
E
Arms outstretched into the sky,
G
Tears drying on their face.
D
He has been here.
Am
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
E
Fathers lost without a trace.
G
A nation blind to their disgrace,
D
Since he's been here.
Am
And I see no bravery,
E
No bravery,
G
In your eyes anymore.
D
Only sadness.
Am
And I see no bravery,
E
No bravery,
G
In your eyes any more
D F
Only sadness
D F D
Only sadness

The smell of death is in the air.

Tracer lighting up the sky.

It's another families turn, to die.

A child afraid to even cry out says,
D
He has been here.

In your eyes anymore.

Only sadness

Am
There are children standing here,

Arms outstretched into the sky,
G
But no one asks the question why,
D
He has been here.

Old men kneel to accept their fate.

Wives and daughters cut and raped.
G
A generation drenched in hate.
D
Says he has been here.
Am
And I see no bravery,
E
No bravery,
G
In your eyes anymore.
D
Only sadness.
Am
And I see no bravery,

In your eyes any more...

In your eyes any more,
