[Verse 1]
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Why does a rose need water and a whole lot of sunshine?

One more time
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Why does a rose need water and a whole lot of sunshine?
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Why does the night need moonlight? Tell me
Dm7               Am7       Gm7
Oh not for nothing, not for nothing


[Verse 2]
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Why do the wheels keep rolling? Oh
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Metal down to the floor yeah, tell me
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Why do we stop at a red light, oh why
Dm7               Am7       Gm7
Not for nothing, oh not for nothing
           Dm7     Am7

Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Freedom fighters, fighting in silence
Dm7               Am7       Gm7
Oh but not for nothing, no not for nothing


[Verse 3]
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Why do the hands keep ticking around the clock?
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Like the sand in a hourglass, so slow but so fast
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Why are we born into sinning just to be born again?
Dm7               Am7       Gm7
Not for nothing, oh not for nothing
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
Oh not for nothing, oh no

Oh not for nothing, oh not for nothing


[Verse 4]
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
When you see my hands up and I say I can't breathe
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
That's not for nothing, oh no
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
When my hands are up high and I say I can't breathe
Dm7                     Am7 Dbmaj7 Gm7
It's not for nothing, it's not for nothing
Dm7               Am7      Gm7
Oh not for nothing, oh not for nothing
