Standard tuning

verse

Em         D                C
He stands alone outside the blooming yards 
Em       D                C
All is calm there on the street 
Em           D            C
The shadows pass him hung right over 
Em              D                 C
The pain on his face he knew he’d keep... 
Em           D              C
His hair is long, and it’s twisted, it’s twisted 
Em          D                C
Around the smile spread cheek to cheek 
Em         D              C
Another child, another soul, grabs a hold 
      Em               D        C           
To the metal that will end his misery...

G
One by one 
   D                 Em
We stand beneath the sun 
           C          D
With arms high open wide 
G
Two by two 
D
He’s getting you 
Em                    C                D          Em  D  C
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew    

Verse 2

Em        D          C
How much anger is set aside
Em         D        C
As each one of us cries 
Em              D              C
Red light they come and they take him away 
Em                        D          C
In the thoughts, he’ll be better, some day. 
Em              D
Tied tight, can’t see out your eyes 
        C
That he’s sure to shine, sure to shine 
Em                   D                 C
In this deep dark, played out, reality show 
   EM         D             C
So, who’s the man, with the plan, 
                       EM
eating up all that he can? 
          D                C
Don’t you see, don’t you see...

G
Two by two 
D
He’s getting you 
Em                    C                D
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew 


Interlude-play chorus



C                                     D
Do you ever think that things are meant to be? 
       C                                 D              
I know we all have our reasons why 
C                                       D
And now the power of one human being 
              C                           D
Has gone and changed so many lives...

G                      D                                     Em
One by one we stand, we stand, we stand, over,

over, you...
