G                    F
One of her babies is rotting in the 
sun
C                           F
And the other one was found drowned 
in the ocean
G                            F
Her mom and dad are in their van 
crushed and bloated
C                                 
And her husband was thrown from 
  F
his fishing boat
G                              F
So please give me a break from all 
your complaining
C                                 
About who was mean to you and how 
     F
your stepdad is a pain
G                        F
- I care, I swear, but I just can't 
take it, not today
C                         F
All i can think about are tsunamis 
and earthquakes

G                F             C
Everything she's ever known is gone,
 gone, gone
G              F             C
Everyone she's ever loved is gone, 
gone, gone
G               F
The only reason she's alive is
C             F              G  
She grabbed a palm frond and 
     F     C
held on
G          F     C
And held on

(Same chord structure throughout)
You can call me crazy but it seems 
to me we could
Have sent more than we spend in one 
day killing iraqis
To help the hundreds of thousands
Who are injured and diseased
And hungry and homeless and without 
families
I'm appalled by our government's 
initial reaction
And the fact that they asked for a 
verbal retraction
From the folks who called them 
stingy
They're just covering their assets
Well, they thank their greedy god 
for wiping out the lower class

We'd have 12/26 tattoed across our 
foreheads
If something this atrocious happened
 on our coast instead
Well, a tragedy's a tragedy no 
matter where it happens
Close your eyes really tight and 
imagine
That everything you've ever known is
 gone
And everything you've ever loved is 
gone
And the only reason you're alive is 
you were lucky
And you were strong enough to hold 
on
While you watched your family die
While you watched your family die
While you watched your family die
While you watched your family die
