[Intro 1]
[G][Em][G][C][G][Em]
[C][G]

[Verse 1]
What do you [G]think
Heaven's like?
I think [Em]it's a garden
I think it's your eye[Dsus4]s
[D]And I think it's my
[C]beating [G]heart

[Verse 2]
If you don't mind [G]me asking
Who do you think God [Em]is?
Do you think he was born [D]to spite
Both the wicked and the [C]righteous?
Well, I think he is [G]good
[Em][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Did you hear the church bells ring?
Night rang out in Char[Em]leston
As blood rained on the [Dsus4]pul pit[D]
Widows gave up their of[C]ferings[G]

[Verse 4]
The poor and [G]the prophet
Sang hymns of their sor[Em]row
They're tired of being for[D]gotten
And I'm tired of [C]watching
No, I won't look [D]on

[Verse 5]
The cities are [C]burn[G]ing [D]down
All I've got is a song
So I will [F]sing it out
[C]Just to help the world
[G][Em][C][G]

[Verse 6]
Where is our humanity?
Have we lost our ca[Em]pacity?
To see that every [D]breath we breathe
Is a thread in the [C]tapestry[G]

[Verse 7]
That winds into [G]eternity
Where we'll stand [Em]as a family
And our bodies so [D]heavenly
Sisters and [C]brothers
So I won't look [D]on

[Verse 8]
Cities are [C]burn[G]ing [D]down
All I've got is a song
And so I'll [F]sing it [C]out
No, I won't stand [D]by

[Verse 9]
The cities are [C]burn[G]ing [D]down
All I've got is this life
And so I'm gonna [F]live [C]it loud

[Verse 10]
Oh- oh, oh, [D]ooh, oh
(no, I won't stand by)
Oh- oh, oh, [C]oh, [G]oh, [D]oh- oh
Oh- oh, oh, ooh, [Dsus4]oh (no, I won't
[D]sta[Dsus4]nd by)[D]
Oh- oh, oh, ooh, oh
[F]

[Verse 11]
[C]
[D]Oh- oh, oh, ooh, oh (no, I
won't stand by)
[Dsus4]Oh- oh, o[C]h, [G]ooh, oh[D]
Oh- oh, oh, ooh,
[Dsus4]oh (no, I[D] won't sta[Dsus4]nd by)
Oh- oh, oh, ooh, [D]oh

[Outro 1]
