Am C
Tell me why the grass was greener
G D Am C
Years ago I swear it used to grow here
G D
But no more here
Am C
Tell me why on this hill
G D Am C
All the birds they used to come to fly here
G D
Come to die here
Am C
And tell me why I need to know
G D Am C
Sometimes I wish I didn't have to know
G D
All you've shown me

Don't give up on me, I won't give up on you
G D Am C G D Am C G D
Just believe in me, like I believe in you

Tell me why on the corner
All the kids that used to come to run here
Load their guns here
Am C
And tell me why it's okay
G D
To kill in name of the gods we pray
Am C
Tell me who said it's okay
G D
To die in the name of the lies we say
Am C
Tell me why there's child soldiers
G D
Tell me why they closed the borders
Am C
Tell me how to fight disease and

Is to be in the arms of someone
