Bm

[Verse 1]
F#m             G          A     Bm
Where are the arms of the world?
F#m                  G          A   Bm
They've always been able to find us
F#m              G           A   Bm
Caught between borders and shores
F#m             G           A
Reaching past danger and blindness
Bbm
My Mother wept over the headlines
Bm                          F#m
The Beatles appeared in my dreams
E                             G            Gmaj7
"Hoo Boy" exclaimed our man Mister Cronkite

[Bridge]
A                     G        A    Bm
As the Eagle touched down on blurry TV


[Verse 2]
F#m                G           A    Bm
And where are the eyes of the world?
F#m                  G           A  Bm
They’ve always been able to see you
F#m              G            A   Bm
Why did you give up and turn away
F#m                G             A
At the moment that so many need you
Bbm
And the sight of children in cages
Bm                               F#m
While dog whistles stink up the place
E                             G                 Gmaj7
Everything's different but nothing much changes


[Chorus]
A                 D           G          A   A6
Our Man Walter Cronkite would be on the case
D                  G                A
And what will you miss when you're gone?
Bbm
Lovers and songs and light ever-changing
Bm                            A                  F#m
And the sense that once you belong to something amazing
A                 G
It was something amazing

[Instrumental]

D G x3
Gm Bm


[Verse 3]
F#m                        A
Where is the heart of the world?
F#m                             A
I always believed it could love me
F#m                              A
It's one of those things without words
F#m                           A
Like the sight of the stars shining above me
Bbm
My Father rode trains Monday to Friday
Bm                           F#m
His chin fell asleep on his chest
E                      G                Gmaj7
I carry what's left somewhere inside me


[Outro]
F#m              G                       A
Our Man Walter Cronkite has gone to his rest
F#m              G          A
Our Man Walter Cronkite is gone
