Tonart: D minor•
Verse 1
Gm
A
Dm
I write
a hard man,
A
I'm tryna understand what we're here for
I shed a couple tears,
Dm
seen a picture of that kid
Lying still on the sand of the seashore
Gm
Cause he should've been
built in a castle
A
Should've had a bucket and a spade
Dm
But with shoes full of water
Or our sons and our daughters
are washing up on the shore like the waves
Gm
I read the news the other day,
on a train to my mum's house
Em
A
Image on the front page
Dm
Gm
Dm
changed my state of mind
from sunrise to sundown
A
Dm
And I've been trying to find a way out,
way out, way out
Gm
But I'll never find an open door
A
How could I heal an is sue
that my heart hasn't broken for?
Am
no disaster, a Ghazi war
Dm
As I remain silent on behalf
Am
of the world still unspoken for
Gm
Have you ever thought so powerless,
that I would slip the Glock?
A
Take the wig, barn the cattle, drip, uh
Dm
Am
Acting like you can't handle it
Staring at your healthy hands
Dm
Acting like they're wrapped in bandages, uh
Gm
I am as weak as I make myself
I cannot say I live in a nightmare
A
With the ability to wake myself
Dm
I celebrate hell and praise myself
I am the pacifist who maimed himself
Gm
But you cannot change the system
If you remain a victim
A
Icarus looked ridiculous
But at least he had some vision
Dm
I'm spitting lyrics of this hypocrite
Corn contradiction
I wanna touch the sun
But I'm afraid of the solar system
Gm
A
Let this image be the catalyst
Gm
Dm
that strangles my selfishness
Gm
Em
Dm
Instead of just some paper
that I wrap around my fish and chips
But instead of persecuting politicians
Dm
I must purge my personal pollution
Gm
There is only one solution
A
Gm
Dm
Of which we are accountable
Gm
A
Dm
Did you give without receiving
And love in a way that was tangible?
Refugee to the tyrant
Dm
We are all children of God
Blessed with innocence
Gm
Stop saying that you're useless
A
Gm
You cannot kill an army
A
But there's a man in the mirror
That you can start disarming
Dm
And you cannot love your neighbor
Am
Unless you love yourself
Dm
Don't talk about changing nations
Am
A
Am
Dm
Gm
till you can hug yourself
Dm
And you cannot love your neighbor
Am
unless you love yourself
A
Dm
Stop talking about changing nations
till you can hug yourself
Gm
I write about a hard man,
I'm trying to understand
Dm
Man I shed a couple tears,
seen a picture of that kid lying still
on the sand of the seashore
Gm
Cause he should've been
building a castle
bucket and a spade
Dm
But with shoes full of water,
our sons and our daughters
are washing up on the shore like the waves
