G                    D           
   Dear Mr President, come take a
               Em     D
 walk with me
               G              
Let's pretend,  we're just two 
            D
people and,  you're not better than 
me,
           Em                      
I'd like to, ask you some questions
           D
 if we can, speak honestly.


[Pre-Chorus]

C              Am7               
  What do you feel when you see 
    G                    D
the homeless on the street?
C              Am7          
  Who do you pray for at night 
       G               D
before you go to sleep?
C              Am7               
  What do you feel when you look 
        Em        D
in the mirror?
           C     C
Are you proud?


[Chorus]

             G               D    
How do you sleep while the rest of
     Am     (Am/B)     C
 us cry?
             G             D      
How do you dream when a mother has
       Am              C
 no chance to say goodbye?
             G             D      
How do you walk with your head 
   Am        (Am/B)    C
held high?
               Em     D       C
Can you even look me in the eye?
                G
And tell me why

[Verse 2]

G                  D
  Dear Mr President, were you a 
lonely boy
Em                      D
  Were you a lonely boy?
                G                
How can you say, no child is left 
        D
behind
We're not dumb, and we're not blind
Em

                                  D
They're all sitting in your cells

while you pave the road to hell


[Pre-Chorus 2]

C               Am7              
What kind of father might take 
          G                 D
his own daughter's rights away?
C                 Am7            
And what kind of father might 
              G                   
hate his own daughter if she were 
D
gay?
C            Am7                 
I can only imagine what the first
   G          D
 lady has to say
               Em                  
You've come a long way, from 
        A
whiskey and cocaine


[Chorus]

             G               D    
How do you sleep while the rest of
     Am     (Am/B)     C
 us cry?
             G             D      
How do you dream when a mother has
       Am              C
 no chance to say goodbye?
             G             D      
How do you walk with your head 
   Am        (Am/B)    C
held high?
               Em     D         C
Can you even look me in the eye?
