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

[Verse 1]
With [G]my
eyes wide open
With my feet on the ground
Standin' [C]face to the sun
Feel the taste on my tongue
Bitter [G]sorrow, dear Lord
With my eyes [Am]wide [G]open
With my heart in my hand
Sayin' [C]prayers in the night
Please take care of the [G]light
for tomorrow, my [Esus4]Lord[E]
[Esus4]What kind of place can we
cre[E]ate in hate?
[Esus4]What makes your mind
so [E]negative?
[Esus4]I keep on hearing how it's getting l[E]ate
[Esus4]Good God,
now something's gotta give
[E]Where are [Am]the love [D]lines to [G]write?
Where [Am]are [Em]the tun [C]e -u[D]ps to pl[G]ay?
Give me [Am]the changes [D]to [Bm]make [B]me [Baug]smile
[Em]Sad [Am]songs[D] away[G]
With my eyes wide open,
with my back to the wind
Reaching [Am]out for a sign,
[C]take this doubt from my [G]mind
[C]Can you [G]hear me, Lord?
With my eyes wide open,
with my faith burning bright
[C]You're the flame I can touch,
not a stain or a [G]crutch
[C]Come on [G]give me sweet [Esus4]love[E]
[Esus4]In my opinion and
for [E]all its worth
[Esus4]You've got the blood of my st[E]reet
[Esus4]If anybody's gonna
save [E]this earth,
[Esus4]come sit around and watch it bleed.
[E]Where are my [Am]strip[D]es[G]?
Where are the [Am]nudes [D]on dis[G]play?
Give [Em]me th[Am]e changes[D]
to [G]make me [Baug]smile
[Em]Sad [Am]songs[D] away[G][C][G]
[Am]Where are [D]the lines that flow
before [G]the street for [Bm]you and me?
[Em]Where [C]are the [D]new notes to [G]play?
[Am]Give me [D]the changes now
to [G]make me [B]smile[Em]
[Am]And take this [D]sad song a[G]way[C][G]
[Am]Where [D]are, where are,
[G]the words that you would need?
[Em]Where are,[C] where[D] are,
new [Em]notes to play?
[Am]Give me [D]the changes now
to [G]make me [Baug]smile[Em]
[Am]And take the s[D]ad song [G]away[C][G]
[Am]Where all [D]the are covered
[G]So I treat what's friendly
[Em]Where all the [D]new
notes [G]are played
[Am]Give me the [D]changes now
to make me smile
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
