              G                                  C            G
So when the smoke and the fire of anther attack slowly drift away

     D              C           G
Can anyone seem to find the appropriate words to say?

          G                              C                G
When the pain of loss and sudden change conjure family strife

         D           C            G
Is there any hope at all for a return to normal life?


G  C  G  D  C  G


         G                              C             G
Is there solace in condolence or just deeper pain dug up?

         D                 C              G
The sad truth is victim's families have nothing to look forward to

        G                                        C             G
And I'm sick of picking up the Boston Globe and seeing painful days of loss

        D                     C                  G
Question everything without apology about the horror and the cost



 D                                   C             G
Shards of life are left behind, no easier, kinder path to find
 
      D                                        C                    G
With a loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it hopes and plans crash in defeat

    G                               C               G
And hope is a foggy and distant memory no hope for normalcy

     D                        C                  G
Cling close to the legacy of loss and shards of life, of life


G  C  G  D  C  G


       G                                 C                  G
We see a new war in the offing as we're challenged by a new plight

      D               C                   G
It's media handle is terrorism, it's the same old ideological fight

G                                  C                  G
The debates will rage on, are we handling this thing right?

      D            C            G
Can't turn away reality, can't push it out of our mind's eye



 D                                   C             G
Shards of life are left behind, no easier, kinder path to find

With a loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it hopes and plans crash in defeat

    G                               C               G
And hope is a foggy and distant memory no hope for normalcy

Cling close to the legacy of loss and shards of life


     G                                   C                      G
And civilian loss on the other side, is that something that we try to hide?

D                        C           G
What about the human condition, I'm sick of all these justifications

G                              C                        G
Where is the real outrage? My god, there's got to be a better way

     D                C                    G 
Is this how we solve problems? I guess we haven't really evolved much



 D                                   C             G
Shards of life are left behind, no easier, kinder path to find
