[Verse 1]
Cm   D#                 Fm
He'd trade his guns for love
         G#                    Cm
But he's caught in the crossfire
    D#               Fm
And he keeps wakin' up
         G#                  Cm
But it's not to the sound of birds
    D#           Fm
The tyranny, the violent streets
G#                         Cm
Deprived of all that we're blessed with
    D#           Fm      G#
And we can't get enough, no


[Chorus]
              Cm      Eb
Heaven if you sent us down
                    Fm          G#
So we could build a playground
        Cm                 Eb
For the sinners to play as saints
         Fm                     G#
You'd be so proud of what we've made
               Cm                 Eb
I hope you got some beds around
                      Fm         G#
Cause you're the only refuge now
          Cm            Eb           Fm
For every mother, every child, every brother
G#                   Cm   D#     Fm
That's caught in the crossfire
G#                   Cm   D#     Fm
That's caught in the crossfire

[Verse 2]
Cm  D#               Fm
I'd trade my luck to know
    G#                      Cm
Why he's caught in the crossfire
   D#               Fm
And I'm here wakin' up
       G#                   Cm
To the sun and the sound of birds
  D#      Fm
Society's anxiety
G#                         Cm
Deprived of all that we're blessed with
D#                Fm      G#
We just can't get enough, no!


[Chorus]
              Cm      Eb
Heaven if you sent us down
                    Fm          G#
So we could build a playground

          Cm            Eb           Fm

That's caught in the crossfire
G#                   Cm   D#     Fm
That's caught in the crossfire

[Bridge]
G#    A#             Cm
Can I trust what I'm given?
     D#                  G#
When faith still needs a gun
A#         Cm    D#            G#
Whose ammunition justifies the wrong?
      A#                 Cm
And I can't see from the backseat
       D#          G#
So I'm asking from above
      A#             Cm     Fm
Can I trust what I'm given, even when it cuts?


[Chorus]

You'd be so proud of what we've made

I hope you got some beds around

For every mother, every child, every brother
D#                  G#   A#   Cm
Who's caught in the crossfire
D#                  G#   A#   Cm
Who's caught in the crossfire
D#                  G#   A#   Cm
Who's caught in the crossfire   (Woaaah Woaaah)
D#                  G#   A#   Cm
Who's caught in the crossfire
D#                  G#   A#   Cm
Who's caught on the cross
