Verse 1
Csus2
Where were you
when the world stopped turnin'
Gadd9
Csus2
That September day?
Were you in the yard
with your wife and children
Gadd9
Csus2
Or workin' on some stage in L. A.?
F
Did you stand there in shock
Cadd9
at the sight of that black smoke
F
Cadd9
Risin' against that blue sky?
F
Did you shout out in anger,
Cadd9
in fear for your neighbor
Am
Fadd9
G
Or did you just sit down and cry?
Verse 2
Csus2
Did you weep for the children,
they lost their dear loved ones
Gadd9
Csus2
Pray for the ones who don't know?
Did you rejoice for the people
who walked from the rubble
Gadd9
Csus2
And sob for the ones left below?
F
Did you burst out with pride
Cadd9
for the red, white, and blue
F
And the heroes who died
Cadd9
just doin' what they do?
F
Did you look up to heaven
Cadd9
for some kind of answer
Am
Fadd9
And look at yourself and what really matters?

I watch CNN, but I'm not sure I can tell you

Verse 3
Csus2
Where were you
when the world stopped turnin'
Gadd9
Csus2
That September day?
Teachin' a class full of innocent children
Gadd9
Csus2
Or drivin' down some cold interstate
F
Cadd9
Did you feel guilty 'cause you're a survivor?
F

In a crowded room did you feel alone?

Did you call up your mother
Cadd9
and tell her you love her?
Am
Fadd9
G
Did you dust off that Bible at home?
Verse 4
Csus2
Did you open your eyes
and hope it never happened
Gadd9
Csus2
Close your eyes and not go to sleep?
Did you notice the sunset
for the first time in ages
Gadd9
Csus2
And speak to some stranger on the street?
F
Did you lay down at night
Cadd9
and think of tomorrow
F
Cadd9
Go out and buy you a gun?
F
Did you turn off that violent
Cadd9
old movie you're watchin'
Am
Fadd9
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns?
Cadd9
and hold hands with some strangers
F
Cadd9
Stand in line to give your own blood?
Cadd9
and cling tight to your family
Am
Fadd9
Thank God you had somebody to love?
