Death From Above

Am Fmaj7 Am Fmaj7*

[Verse 1]
Am                                
I always thought, I always 
                 Fmaj7           
thought, that there was something 
                  Am
different, setting us apart
Am                                
That I was led, that I was led by 
         Fmaj7*                    
men with sober minds and 
  Am
sympathetic hearts
I swore an oath, swore an oath, but 
      Fmaj7                        
never knew just what it was to take
   Am
 a life
Am                                
I play at God, play at God across 
     Fmaj7*                        
such distances and from so great a 
Fmaj7
height

[Chorus]
Am                           G
But I am never sure who I am killing
Am                           
How many innocents were in the 
  G
building?
Fmaj7  C         G7
I drop death out of the
Am                                
No longer human beings, no longer 
G
people
Am                                
Just targets on a screen, none of 
     G
it's real

Fmaj7  C         G7     Fmaj7  
I drop death out of the sky... 
     G  Am
Tell me why

[Bridge]
Am Fmaj7 Am Fmaj7*

[Verse 2]
Am                                
One day they sent, one day they 
             Fmaj7                 
sent me to the chaplain when I said
          Am
 I can't go on
Am                                
All he said, all he said was just 
   Fmaj7*                          
to shut my mouth and do the "will 
  Fmaj7
of God"

[Chorus]
Am                           G
But I am never sure who I am killing
Am                           
How many innocents were in the 
  G
building?
Fmaj7  C         G7
I drop death out of the
Am                                
No longer human beings, no longer 
G
people
Am                                
Just targets on a screen, none of 
     G
it's real
Fmaj7  C         G7     Fmaj7  
I drop death out of the sky... 
     G  Dm
Tell me why

[Bridge]
Dm Fmaj7 x4

[Otro]
        Am
Tell me why?
            G7                 Fmaj7
"To make us safe," so it would seem
                             Dm
But we shoot further than we dream
         C/G               Am
Can't we see? We only justify
                     G7     Fmaj7
Someone's resolve to rise against
                      Dm
And to avenge the innocent
Dm    C/G                   
And defend the ones that still 
     Fmaj7*
survive
                  Am
I'm still asking "why?"
