[E]
She
[B]
[E] looked out the window and said the world's on fire.
I just laughed [A] and poured her a glass of [B] wine.
[A] We just stared at the [E] TV, [A] trying to find [E] some meaning.
[A] Hoping that we'd [E] wake up from this [B] dream sometime [E] tomorrow.
Well the night it came [A] and went, not [E] a damn thing had changed.

_ _ [E] _ looked out the window and said the world's on fire. _
_ _ I just laughed [A] and poured her a glass of [B] wine. _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] We just stared at the [E] TV, _ _ [A] trying to find [E] some meaning.
_ _ [A] Hoping that we'd [E] wake up from this [B] dream _ _ _ sometime _ [E] tomorrow. _ _ _ _
_ _ Well the night it came [A] and went, not [E] a damn thing had changed. _ _
_ _ That's when I saw [A] a tear fall from her [B] _ eyes. _ _ _
_ _ [A] She said, what are [E] we gonna do?
_ [A] _ What's this [E] world coming to?
[A] _ _ For the [E] first time in my [B] whole life, _ _ _ I stood [E] there speechless.
_ _ The _ _ [B] _ _ load [A] is heavy and the road is [E] _ long, _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] _ and we've [A] only begun to [E] fight. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] We just can't [E] give in, _ _ [A] we just can't [E] give up.
_ _ [A] _ We must go [E] _
boldly into [B] the darkness _ _ _ and [E] be the light.
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ So I packed up [A] my car and went looking for [E] _ answers _ _ _
_ _ _ to the [A] questions weighing on [B] my mind. _ _ _
_ _ [A] When did the land of [E] the free _ _ [A] become the home of the [E] afraid?
_ _ [A] _ _ Afraid of [E] the world, afraid of [B] the truth, _ _ _ _ afraid of [E] each other.
This [A] ain't the country my [E] grandfather fought for,
but _ _ _ _ I still [A] see the hate he [B] fought against. _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ Give rest to [E] the tired, _ _ [A] _ give mercy to [E] the poor,
_ [A] _ _ _ [E] give warmth to the [B] huddled masses, _ _ and I'll show you [E] freedom. _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ The [A] load is heavy and the road is [E] long, _ _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] _ and we've [A] only begun to [E] fight. _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] We just can't [E] give in, _ _ [A] we just can't [E] give up.
_ [A] _ We must [E] go boldly into [B] the _ darkness _ and [E] be the light. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ I got a baby girl coming in the spring, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I worry about [A] the world she's coming [B] into, _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] but she'll have [E] my fight, _ _ [A] _ she'll have her [E] mama's fire,
_ [A] if _ anyone [E] _
builds a wall [B] in her journey, _ _ _ baby, bust [E] right through. _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ The [A] load is heavy and the road [E] is long, _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] _ _ and we've [A] only _ begun to [E] fight. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ We just can't [E] give in, _ [A] _ we just can't [E] give up.
_ _ [A] _ We must [E] go _ boldly into [B] the darkness. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ The [A] load is heavy and the road [E] is long, _ _ _ and [Abm] _ _ we've [A] only begun to [E] fight. _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ We just can't [E] give in, _ [A] _ we just can't [E] give up.
_ [A] _ We must [E] go _ boldly into [B] the darkness _ _ and be the light. _ _ _ _
