INTRO
Bb C x4

Dm                 C
If you take the tears from crying eyes
Bb                 C
will the hurt just disappear
Dm                 C
put a weapon in the hands of a frightened man
Bb                 C
will he show no fear
Dm                 C            Bb                 C
so we stand and we watch as the city lights go out one by one
Dm                 C            Bb                 C
Mother Nature sits on the other side with a loaded gun

Bb
Why is there blue sky
C
why is there red sky,
Bb                C
now's the time to ask the reason,
Bb                   C
should the blue sky, meet the red sky
Bb                       C
should the rules have to change at all
G               C               Bb             C 
we all know whatever they say, time is on our side
G               C               Bb             C 
Ooh this world has been here before just going round and round

C         Bb    Am           Gm        
We all agree as far as we can see
    C                  Bb
It's just the way of the world,
      Am               Gm
that's how it's meant to be
C                       Bb          
There's right and there's wrong
       Am                   Bb
There's weak - oh and there's strong
   C                   Bb
It's just the way of the world
       Am               Bb
and that's how it's meant to be

Dm

Dm              C                  Bb               C
Take the motion from a spinning wheel and watch it stop
Dm              C                  Bb               C
Take the danger out of a naked flame and what have you got
Dm              C                  Bb               C
If you take the anger out of a broken heart, you feel no pain
Dm              C                  Bb               C
Could you swear if you had that second chance you wouldn't do it again.
