Soon the brass will offer up their thoughts and prayers
Am C F C
Soon there'll be protests in the street
Am C
And the media from out of town

Then move on to the next one

Before we even grieve
Am C
Yeah, then move on to the next one

Before we even grieve

Some say we start to die on the day that we're born

But no one wants to live life on their knees

Maybe we start to die on the day that we're born
Am G C
But we deserve to live life in between

[Verse]
Am C F C
A husband kissed the cross that bears his Margie's name
Am C F C
And promises he'll see her once again
Am C
Won't see her children grow
F C
Won't see their love grow old

Last night their dream became a nightmare
F C
And their nightmare has no end
Am C
Last night their dream became a nightmare

And their nightmare has no end

F C
These days it's hard to sleep
Am C
When I lay my head down
F C
What if it was your loved one
G
Laying on the ground
F C
I'm left to think about
Am C
What if, what now?
F C
Dear God I wanna pray
F C
But tonight I have my doubts
F C G
When I think about those families now
