Dm Am
Catch the rain empty hands
Bb
Save the children from their lands
Dm
Wash the darkness from their skin
Am
Heroes from the west
Bb
We don't know you, we know best
But this is not a test
Chorus:
Bb F
You treat me like I'm blind
C Gm F C
Setting fires around houses on the hill
Gm Bb
But light gives heat
Bb F
You segregate my mind
C Gm F C
Burning crosses from your fears, oh
Gm Bb C Dm
The light gives heat
Verse 2:
Dm Am
It's not the way to light their way
Bb
Poison holes in empty fields
Dm
Oh, how good it feels
Am
Lower-class, and understate
Bb
Empty promise, empty plate
Chorus:
Bb F
You treat me like I'm blind
C Gm F C
Setting fires around houses on the hill
G Bb
Light gives heat
Bb F
You segregate my mind
C Gm F C
Burning crosses from your fears, your fears
Gm Bb
But light gives heat, gives heat

Will you teach us how to love?

To see the things you see

Feel the pain that you feel

At your feet I kneel,

I want to see you shine

See your light not mine

'Cause light gives heat

Your light gives heat
