D A
Come, tell me your trouble
G
I'm not your answer
D
But I'm a listening ear
D A
Reality has left you reeling
G
All facts and no feeling
D
No faith and all fear
Em
I don't know why a good man will fall
Bm
While a wicked one stands
Em
And our lives blow about
A
Like flags on the land
D A
Who's at fault is not important
G
Good intentions lie dormant
D
And we're all to blame
D A
While apathy acts like an ally
G D
My enemy and I are one and the same
Em
I don't know why the innocents fall
Bm
While the monsters still stand
Em
And our lives blow about
A
Like flags on the land
Em
I don't know why our words are so proud
Bm
Yet their promise so thin
Em
And our lives blow about
A
Like flags in the wind

All you lonely be lonely no more

Yes, the last will be first

Of this I'm sure

I don't know why the innocents fall

While the monsters stand

I don't know why the little ones thirst
