ONLY THE CHILDREN

Fa#m        Re          La          Mi

Lasus9                           Mi                   Fa#m

We keep hurtin each other, when words can be easily said

Lasus9                           Mi                   Fa#m

No understanding or reason, just fear and confusion instead

Lasus9                           Mi                   Fa#m

We all need hope for the future and the young need a chance to survive

Re                Lasus9                   Mi

No one knows the pain that's felt by the innocent

        Fa#m              Re

Who are fighting to stay alive

    Lasus9                         Mi

Can no one see the tears in their eyes

          Fa#m        Re      La      Mi

Only the children

         Fa#m        Re      La      Mi

Only the children cry

         Fa#m        Re      La      Mi

Only the children

         Fa#m        Re      La      Mi

Lasus9                           Mi                   Fa#m

Why do those who have plenty ignore those with nothing at all

Lasus9                           Mi                   Fa#m

Why must the ones just beginning stand with their backs to the wall

Lasus9                           Mi                   Fa#m

They keep asking for answers and we keep on telling them lies

Re                 Lasus9                Mi

They only want to understand what they feel inside

    Fa#m                     Re

The hunger that tears them apart

         Lasus9                             Mi

It's the one thing they've known from the start

         Fa#m        Re      La      Mi

Only the children

         Fa#m        Re      La      Mi

Only the children cry

         Fa#m        Re      La      Mi

Only the children
