From Blood of Man

C G
Every step I take takes me farther from you
F C G
Every move I make reminds me that I'll always love you
C G
Since you were a child we built our lives around you
F C G
How'm I supposed to live in this world we made without you?
F G F C G
Sometimes late at night I go the field
F G F
Is that where you are?
F C G
Are you a shooting star?
F G F
Can you say my name?
F C G
Darling can you hear me?
F G F C G
Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
F G F G F G C
It's right here, it's right here, it's right here
C G
When you joined the war we were so proud of you
F C G
You seemed so grown up, living life the way we taught you
C G
Then your first letter came, it sounded nothing like you
F C G
It took all my strength to keep myself from running to you
F G F C G
Sometimes late at night I go the field
F G F
Is that where you are?
F C G
Are you a shooting star?
F G F
Can you say my name?
F C G
Darling can you hear me?
F G F C G
Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
F G F G F G C
It's right here, it's right here, it's right here

Am F C C/B
If I was the President, if I was that man
Dm F C C/B
I would walk out with those kids, out across the sand
Am F C C/B
If I was the President, if I was that brave
Dm F C C/B
I would take a shovel, then dig each child their grave
Am F C C/B
If I was the President, and my world turned black
Am F C C/B
I would want no victory, I'd just want you back
Am F C C/B
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
Dm F C C/B
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
Am F C C/B
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
Dm F C G
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
