F Am G G (2x)


[Verse 1]

Am          G          F         F
Standing on top of the dawn
      Am       G          F        F 
Empty bottles, all hope is gone
      Am             G      F        F 
I can smell that the end is near 
       F              G        Am      Am
When I leave, they'll still be here
 
Am           G          F         F
Children all covered in dust
         Am     G              F         F
There is no one around they can trust
          Am         G          F         F
When they pray, does God really hear?
          F          G    Am        Am
When they pay, do we even care?


[Chorus]

     F            Am              G             G         
If I dig a little deeper, I might find a little more
     F          Am            G         G
If I open up my eyes, I can't ignore
     F           Am            G                    G
If I stop making excuses, if I start with something small
        F             Am         G         G
I might find peace of mind after all


[Verse 2]

Am               G            F          F
Eyes filled with fear stare a hole
      Am          G           F          F
In my soul, I can feel how it grows
      Am         G            F          F
Empty words echo loud in this world
          F         G             Am          Am
While the voices in need can't be heard

Am         G              F         F
Nothing in life comes for free
       Am          G     F         F
It's a lie told by you & me
       Am             G         F         F
Can we change, can we split the sea?
      F              G      Am       Am
If we pay, there's a chance maybe


[Chorus]

      F            Am               G             G
If we dig a little deeper, we might find a little more
      F           Am             G         G
If we open up our eyes, we can't ignore
      F           Am             G                    G
If we stop making excuses, if we start with something small
         F             Am         G         G
We might find peace of mind after all


[Bridge]

D       C        Am             G
No more lies, we let each other down
      D         C           Am             G
If we close our eyes, we're letting people drown
D       C        Am               G
No more whinin', this is where we are
          D         C            Am                  G
So, don't hold your fire, take a stand & aim for the heart


[Chorus]

      F            Am               G             G
If we dig a little deeper, we might find a little more
      F           Am             G         G
If we open up our eyes, we can't ignore
      F           Am             G                    G
If we stop making excuses, if we start with something small
         F             Am         G         G
We might find peace of mind after all
