Let It Be Me

G  C  G  A   C C   D


[Verse 1]

G          C
Sticks and stones
G      A
Battle zones
C                             
A single light bulb on a single 
  D
thread for the black

G      C
Sirens wail
G       A
History fails
C                            D
Rose-colored glass begins to age and
 crack

          G                        
While the politicians shadowbox the
       A
 power ring
      G                            
In an endless split decision never 
C
solve anything
       G                   A
From a neighbor's distant land
            C                      
I heard the strain of the common 
  D
man


[Chorus]

          G
Let it be me
            C             Am       
           (this is not a fighting 
D
song)
          G
Let it be me
             C       Am          
              (not a wrong for a 
D
wrong)
          G  C
Let it be me
Am                G      A      C
  If the world is night

   C C   D
Shine my life like a light


[Verse 2]

G                    C
Well the world seems spent
G                 A
And the president
C                           D
Has no good idea Of who the masses 
are

     G          C
Well I'm one of them
        G     A
And I'm among friends
                C             
We're trying to see beyond the 
               D
fences in our own backyards

              G                 
I've seen the kingdoms blow like 
              A
ashes in the winds of change
        G                     C
But the power of truth is the fuel 
for the flame
       G                A
So the darker the ages get
          C                  D
There's a stronger beacon yet


[Chorus]

          G
Let it be me
            C             Am       
           (this is not a fighting 
D
song)
          G
Let it be me
             C       Am          
              (not a wrong for a 
D
wrong)
          G C
Let it be me
Am                G      A      C
  If the world is night
N.C                       G
Shine my life like a light


[Bridge]
                     A
In the kind word you speak
C                   D
 In the turn of the cheek
G                       A
 When your vision stays clear
C                     D
 In the face of your fear

             G                  
Then you see turning out a light 
                      A
switch is their only power
        G                          
When we stand like spotlights in a 
C
mighty tower
        G                A
All for one and one for all
        G                   D
Then we sing the common call


[Chorus]

          G
Let it be me
            C             Am       
           (this is not a fighting 
D
song)
          G
Let it be me
             C       Am          
              (not a wrong for a 
D
wrong)
          G C
Let it be me
Am                G      A      C
  If the world is night
N.C                       G
Shine my life like a light
