[Verse]
C*                B*
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie
Bb*            A*
Where have you been?
C*              B*
Bruises on your body 
  Bb*                 A*
A flesh wound on your chin
               C*           B*
Why won't they do something?
               Bb*          A*
Why won't they do something?
          Ab     Bb    Cm
Why won't anyone do something?

       C*              B*
You're calling out for mummy 
    Bb*            A*
But there's no one there
    C*               B*
And now you're all surrounded 
    Bb*        A*
But no one can hear
               C*           B*
When will they do something?
               Bb*          A*
Why won't they do something?
          Ab     Bb    Cm
When will anyone do something?


[Chorus]
Eb             G
Try to leave a mark
    Cm
Who wants to live in vain?
Ab                    Bb
  But they won't ever listen
    Eb              G      Cm
I'm waiting for the sun to take away the rain
         Ab         Bb   Eb
Singing "it's gonna be okay"


[Interlude]

[Verse]
    C*               B*
You lost the grip of her hand 
       Bb*             A*
As the gun fell to the ground
     C*               B*
It's hard to slip and then land 
        Bb*        A*
Without making any sound
               C*           B*
Why won't they do something?
               Bb*          A*
Why won't they do something?
          Ab     Bb    Cm
Why won't anyone do something?

C*                B*
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie
Bb*            A*
Where have you been?
     C*               B*             Bb*    A*
Went looking for your ethics in the recycle bin
               C*           B*
When will they do something?
               Bb*          A*
Why won't they do something?
          Ab     Bb    Cm
When will anyone do something?


[Chorus]
Eb             G
Try to leave a mark
    Cm
Who wants to live in vain?
Ab                    Bb
  But they won't ever listen
    Eb              G      Cm
I'm waiting for the sun to take away the rain
         Ab         Bb   Eb
Singing "it's gonna be okay"
         Ab         Bb   Eb
Singing "it's gonna be okay"


[Bridge]
    C*                 B*
The tallest trees will tell you 
         Bb*                A*
I wasn't like this from the start
    C*            B*
But if you really love me, 
        Bb*             A*
Lock me up when it gets dark
     C*               B*
I've been inside this body 
    Bb*          A*
For twenty-seven years
  Ab
I know they stole my laughter
          G
They will never get my tears


[Chorus]
Eb             G
Try to leave a mark
    Cm
Who wants to live in vain?
Ab                Bb
  But no one ever listens 
    Eb              G      Cm
I'm waiting for the sun to take away the rain
         Ab         Bb   Eb
Singing "it's gonna be okay"
         Ab         Bb Eb
Singing "it's gonna be okay"
