Tell me why

Intro: C  Am  Em  G

Verse:
   Am
A day with no glory
A heart filled with fear
   Em
Repeating his story to make ourselves clear
   Am
A voice is unheard when it shouts from the hills
     Em
Your king in his castle never died on these fields
   Am
There’s blood on your hands, a smile on your face
   Em
Wicked intention, there’s money to be made
    Am
A room with no windows and a heart that can’t feel
 Em
Shame with no convictions and a view to a kill

Chorus:
         C                 Am
Tell me why, why must we fight
             Em                           G
Why must we kill in the name of what we think is right
        C
And no more
    Am
No war
                    Em    G
‘Cause how do you know?

Verse:
    Am
The hate in your eyes
The lies on your tongue
    Em
A hand that kills the innocent, so quick to do wrong
      Am
The belly is full while we fight for what remains
       Em
The rich getting richer while the poor become slaves
     Am
We kill our own brothers, the truth is never told
       Em
If victory is freedom, then the truth is untold
    Am
Surrender your soldiers like everyone else
       Em
If love is my religion, don’t speak for myself

Chorus:
         C                Am
Tell me why, why must we fight
              Em                         G
Why must we kill in the name of what we think is right
         C
And no more
    Am
No war
                   Em     G
‘Cause how do you know?

Bridge:
                 C  Am
And how do you know?
                 Em  G
And how do you know?
                  C Am
And how do you know?
                 Em  G
And how do you know?

Chorus:
                C                Am
Please tell me why, why must we fight
            Em                          G
Why must we kill in the name of what we think is right
        C
And no more
   Am
No war
                    Em    G
‘Cause how do you know?

                 C
I'm living this life,
                 Am
I'm given these lies
             Em                           G
And how do I die in the name of what you think is right?
        C
And no more
    Am
Oh Lord
                  Em  G
‘Cause how do we know?
              C
And how do we know?
