[E] [D]
Wait a minute, let me speak, let me share the grief that lies behind [E] your smile.
[D] There's people turning bad, feeling sad, misunderstanding, and the world's [E] gone mad.
[A] [D] And you watch TV, and you shake your [E] tortured head, yeah.
[A]
And I watch the world, and [E] I really think we might be better
[C#m] off.
Father, you've been a long time [Bm] so lonely.
Oh, hear me [C#m] now, Father, you've got a stake in [D] my soul, so, [E] so mean.
[F#m]
I need it now, I need it now, we need it now.
[D]
Genocide reveals the foulest root, the sweetest lips receive the sour fruit [E]
again.
[C#m] [D] A killer swears he's just a thief, a thief declares he's just a victim of [E] kind.
[Bm] [D] And you watch TV, and they make the bets that [E] they lie in.
[A]
And I watch the world, [F#m] and [E] there really isn't more to life than dying.
[C#m] Father, you've been a long [Bm]
time so lonely.
Oh, [C#m]
God has taken [D] my soul, so, [E] so mean.
