[E] And then that awful [G#] night in Las Vegas happened where 58 people lost their lives [N] doing nothing
more than what we're doing here tonight.
And so we started dedicating it to the families [G] of those lost ones.
And since [A] then, lo and behold, there's [Em] a
Texas happened where 27 people lost their lives, so [G#] we added that to that.
And then not [N] long after that, four more people, four kids died in school in California.
And the other night, just when I thought, well, maybe I won't mention it, but I'm going to.
I'm going to continue to talk about it because it's important.
And the other night it wasn't even recorded.
Two kids killed in an elementary school in Albuquerque, and it didn't even make the news.
So clearly [C] the conversation has to continue, and that's all we're doing.
[N] We don't profess to have the answers, but we got to continue to talk about it.
[G] And these are the holidays, and we got to talk to each other, [C#m] not at each other.
And [C#] maybe someday, someday we'll fucking do something.
[F#m]
We're [E] [N] going to continue to talk to all the families so far this year who have lost a loved one.
[E]
I can think of younger days where living for my [F#m] life was the big thing a man [E] had wanted to do.
I [G#] could never see [C#m] tomorrow.
[F#] I could never talk [B] about [C#] the [B] sorrow.
[A] That [E] man, how can you make [G#m] [E] this forever?
How [F#m]
can you stop the rain from falling down?
[A] How can [B] you stop [A] the [B] sun from shining?
[F#m] What makes [B] the world go [E] round?
[B] [E] And how can you make this broken man?
[F#m] How can you turn it away?
[A] He helped me [B] make [A] my [B] broken heart
[F#m] And let me [G#m] live [E] with him again
Na na na na na na
I can still feel the breeze
That goes through the [F#m] trees
And the sweet memories [E] of days gone by
[G] [G#] We have never seen [C#m] tomorrow
No [F#] shadow worth [B] [E]
the [B] sorrow
And
[E] how can you make this broken man?
[F#m] How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How [G#m] [A] can [B] you stop [A] the sun [B] from shining?
[C#m] What makes [B] the world go [E] round?
And how can you make this broken man?
