A
Please, give me a redemption song
A7M
I need one real bad
A7
No one seems to write them now
F#7
That John and Bob are dead
Bm E
All I know is
D
We need one right now
A
If life's another game of chess
A7M
We lost a couple pieces
A7
The ones who had a dream for us
F#7
The legends who would lead us
Bm E
All I know is
D
We need them right now
A
The darkness makes it hard to see the light
F#m
But the time is always right to do what's right
Bm
If you only knew
E
I'm just as scared as you
You're not the only one
A
Is it ignorant to say that war is
A7M
Just no longer needed?
A7
And childish to think that love
F#7
Gives life a higher meaning?
Bm E
All I know is
D
We need love right now
A
The people we have given trust
A7M
End up corrupt and rotten
A7
They start with great ideals
F#7
But on the way that's all forgotten
Bm E
All I know is
D
We need hope right now
A
The darkness makes it hard to see the light
F#m
But the time is always right to do what's right
Bm
If you only knew
E
I'm just as scared as you
You're not the only one
A
You're not the only one who's had enough
F#m
Give me your hand, so we can stand up
D E
You're not the only one done waiting for changes to come
You're not the only one done waiting
A
The darkness makes it hard to see the light
(Give me your hand, so we can stand up)
F#m
But the time is always right to do what's right
(You're not the only one done waiting)
Bm
If you only knew (for changes)
E
I'm just as scared as you (to come)
You're not the only one
A
Please, give me a redemption song
A7M
I need one real bad
A7
No one seems to write them now
F#7
That John and Bob are dead
Bm E
All I know is
D Dm
We need one right now
