E
Did you watch last night
Bsus
Those people's plite
C#sus
There's some new war
Asus
There's some new fight
E
More refugees
Bsus Asus
I wish this was a movie
E
They truck them out
Bsus
They were packet like sheep
C#sus
When they dropped the gates
Asus
I heard mother's weep
E
A rag doll fell out
Bsus C#sus
My God it was someone's baby
Asus E
Cause what I really see
C#sus Asus
Are people like you and me
E Bsus
And all of us silent witnesses
C#sus Asus
Who can't believe our eye's
E Bsus
And still see what is happening
C#sus Asus
To children just like ours
E Bsus
We are the silent witnesses
C#sus Asus
Though we send what help we can
E Bsus
We are witnessing our failure
C#sus Asus
To love and understand
E Bsus
From the safety of my living room
C#sus Asus
I watch their houses burn
E
It's an endless cycle of hatred
Bsus C#sus Asus
In the name of some religion
E Bsus
And a boy at play so innocent and young
C#sus Asus
Was the victim of a cowards gun
E
He has lost his sight
Bsus C#sus
Of what crime was he guilty
Asus E
Cause what I really see
C#sus Asus
Are people like you and me
E Bsus
And all of us silent witnesses
C#sus Asus
With our loved ones safe and well
E Bsus
Living here in paradise
C#sus Asus
Watching someone else's hell
E Bsus
We are the silent witnesses
C#sus Asus
Though we send what help we can
E Bsus
We are witnessing our failure
C#sus Asus
To love and understand ..... ohhh
E Bsus
I admit I'm a simple man
C#sus
There are things about this world
Asus
I will never understand
E Bsus
I sit and watch with horror
C#sus Asus
At the madness of this race
E Bsus
Always witnessing their history
C#sus Asus
Repeating in my face
E
Two young lover's tried
Bsus
To escape some town
C#sus
You'll be safe they were told
Asus
Before they shot them down
E
They died in an embrace
Bsus C#sus Asus
Is this what we have come tooo......
E Bsus
And all of us silent witnesses
C#sus Asus
Who can't believe our eye's
E Bsus
And still see what is happening
C#sus Asus
To children just like ours
E Bsus
We are the silent witnesses
C#sus Asus
Though we send what help we can
E Bsus
We are witnessing our failure
C#sus Asus
To love and understand..........
