[Verse 1]
E G#m B
I can see it, as you are
E G#m B
And I can see it, in your eyes
E G#m B
And I can see it, as you are
E G#m B
And I can see it, in your eyes
E G#m B
The floodgates are now open
E G#m B E
And the lonely truth will flow out
[Chorus]
G#m B E
Why can't they leave things as they are?
G#m B E
Why can't they leave things alone?
[Verse 2]
E G#m B
I heard a friend drift by my window
E G#m B
I saw a gun blow him away
E G#m B
And I can see it, in your hand
E G#m B E
And I can see it, in your eyes
[Chorus]
G#m B E
Why can't we leave things as they are?
G#m B E
Why don't they leave things alone?
G#m B E
Why can't we leave things as they are?
G#m B
Why don't they leave things alone?
[Bridge]
E
Always, we see rivers and fences
E
Always, we see beautiful mountains
[Solo]
E G#m B x2
[Verse 3]
E G#m B
And I can see it, as you are
E G#m B E
And I can see it, in their eyes
[Chorus]
G#m B E
Why don't they leave things as they are?
G#m B E
Why can't we leave things alone?
G#m B E
Why don't they leave things as they are?
G#m B E
Why can't we leave things alone?
