Intro: F#m        D          A          E 

Asus9                           E                   Bm 
We keep hurtin each other, when words can be easily said 
Asus9                            E                    Bm 
No understanding or reason, just fear and confusion instead 
Asus9                                   E                       Bm 
We all need hope for the future and the young need a chance to survive 

D                Asus9                   E 
No one knows the pain that's felt by the innocent 
        F#m              D 
Who are fighting to stay alive 
    Asus9                         E 
Can no one see the tears in their eyes 

         F#m        D      A      E 
Only the children 
F#m     D          A        E 
Only the children cry 
         F#m        D      A      E 
Only the children 

F#m      D      A      E 

Asus9                          E                          Bm 
Why do those who have plenty ignore those with nothing at all 
Asus9                            E                             Bm 
Why must the ones just beginning stand with their backs to the wall 
Asus9                            E                       Bm 
They keep asking for answers and we keep on telling them lies 

D                 Asus9                E 
They only want to understand what they feel inside 
    F#m                     D 
The hunger that tears them apart 
         Asus9                             E 
It's the one thing they've known from the start
