[Verse 1]
Dm A
Calm the fire, do not fight anymore
C
They don't know what they're saying,
G
they don't know anything at all
Bb Dm
For all that matters is you know that
E E7 A
this is not their fault
Dm A
All the places we should never go
C
Lost between the cracks something
G
wicked waits below
Bb Dm
And all I'm saying there are some
E E7 A
things better left unseen at all
Dm Bb G D x2
[Verse 2]
Dm Bb
It's been so long it's tearing me apart
G D
I cannot understand or comprehend
Dm Bb
Where we went wrong. Now we've come so far
G
The madness in our hearts will never
D
end
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G
Cause I've seen it all
Dm
I can't fight it anymore
C
If I had burned forevermore
A
Is there nothing left to save?
[Chorus]
Dm Bb G
Cause now more than ever what we need
Dm Bb G
Is love to replace all the obscene
Dm Bb
Something good and something beautiful,
G
if only we could see
Dm Bb G
That now more than ever what we need
Dm Bb G D
Is a little love
Dm Bb G D
[Verse 3]
Dm Bb
Is there no more have we gone too far?
G
There's nothing I can do to make you
D
sway

Dm Bb
To see the blood running through our hearts
G
No different from the blood we've come
D
to hate
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G
When I close my eyes
Dm
I dream that we are colorblind
C
And now you know you can't deny
A
Only ignorance to blame
[Chorus]
Dm Bb G
Cause now more than ever what we need
Dm Bb G
Is love to replace all the obscene
Dm Bb
Something good and something beautiful,
G
if only we could see
Dm Bb G
That now more than ever what we need
Dm Bb G D
Is a little love
Dm A C G x2
[Bridge]
Dm A
Now let it calm the fire
C G
That burns within your heart tonight
Dm A
For some are too blind to see
C G
The world as it's meant to be
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G
When I close my eyes
Dm
I dream that we are colorblind
C
And now you know you can't deny
A
Only ignorance to blame
[Chorus]
Dm Bb G
Cause now more than ever what we need
Dm Bb G
Is love to replace all the obscene
Dm Bb
Something good and something beautiful,
G
if only we could see
Dm Bb G
That now more than ever what we need
Dm Bb G D
Is a little love
