The Sound of Crying Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Hang [Am]out t[G]he[Am] flag[G]s
and new [D]world [Am]orders on the way[Em]
[G]Start [C]singing down the song
[Am]to greet the j[D]oyful day[Am]
[G]Just [C]when we thought
the time was right
for celebrating [Am]the
music of the spheres
[C]Was this another boat
of fleeing refugees
[G]on [Am]a sea of children's tea[G]rs
[D]Once more the [Em]sound of crying
[Am]is number one across the earth
[G]Once [D]more the sou[Em]nd of cryin'
[Am]is number one across the earth
[G]We're only men and wo[Am]men
doin' what we can
Some[G]times I think that [Am]God
is workin' to a plan
[D]Anoth[C]er times I swear
that he is improvising,
[Am]discordant and remote
[Em]Anothe[C]r laughing baby in a field uprising,
[Am]
another real bum [D]note
Once more the [Em]sound of crying,
[Am]is number one across the earth
[G]Once [D]more the[Em] sound of crying
[Am]is n[D]umber one ac[Am]ross the earth
[D]Once more the [Em]sound of [Am]crying
[D]Once more the [Em]sound [E]of [Am]crying
[G]And if you're [Am]listening up [G]there
You should [Am]consider this a [Em]prayer
[G]Who[C] am I to tell you how
to run your business
[Am]When you could strike me blind
[C]What kind of noise we
gotta make down here
Before we [Am]destroy your peace of mind
[D]Once more the [Em]sound of crying
[Am]Is number one across the e[D]arth
Once more the [Em]sound of cryin'
[Am]is number on[D]e across t[Am]he ea[G]rth
[D]Once more the [Em]sound of [Am]cryin'
[G]Once [D]more the sou[Em]nd of cryin'
[Am]And [G]if you're listenin[Am]g
up [G]there[Am]
[D]Once more, [Em]sound of crying
[Am]Once [D]mor[Am]e,[D]
the [Em]sound of [Am]crying
[D]Once you're more the [Em]sound of crying
[Am]Once [D]you're
more the [Em]sound of crying
