Flags

D                     A
Come, tell me your trouble
                G
I'm not your answer
                   D
But I'm a listening ear

D                       A
Reality has left you reeling
                     G
All facts and no feeling
                    D
No faith and all fear

Em
I don't know why a good man will 
fall
Bm
While a wicked one stands
Em
And our lives blow about
                 A
Like flags on the land

D                         A
Who's at fault is not important
                       G
Good intentions lie dormant
                   D
And we're all to blame

 D                         A
While apathy acts like an ally
               G             D
My enemy and I are one and the same

Em
I don't know why the innocents fall
Bm
While the monsters still stand
Em
And our lives blow about
                   A
Like flags on the land

Em
I don't know why our words are so 
proud
Bm
Yet their promise so thin
Em
And our lives blow about
                   A
Like flags in the wind

G                         D
You who mourn will be comforted
          A                  Em
You who hunger will hunger no more
G                      D
All the last shall be first
              A
Of this I am sure

G                            D
You who weep now will laugh again
         A                   Em
All you lonely be lonely no more
G                       D
Yes, the last will be first
            A
Of this I'm sure

Em
I don't know why the innocents fall
Bm
While the monsters stand
Em
I don't know why the little ones 
thirst
G             A              Em
But I know the last shall be first
G             A          Em
I know the last shall be first
G             A                Bm
I know the last shall be first
