Em                         C 
Where were you the day they stole our innocence?
      G                         D
And arranged a sacrifice for everyone in town.
    Em                        C
To bore the words yet to be written underground
    G                      D
To save the money on the kerosene they need.
Em                         C
Were you awake or were you sleeping?
              G             D
Or just too afraid to disagree?


  Em                            C
Well I don't wanna sing about freedom anymore.
       G               
I wanna see it! I wanna feel it!
          D                
I wanna know that it still sits beyond 

     Em       
the lies that we've been told
            C
beyond the wars that keep our families from home,
      G
I know that there's a way.
     D
Dear God, let there be a way
                 C                       D
to change the path we're on (path we're on).
                        Em
..and believe in a better day.
