Intro: Am | Em | Dm | F 


verse 1 

    Am                                          Em 
The world just took another spin in the wrong direction 
              Dm               F 
Hate found a handgun, and now nobody feels safe 
        Am                                              Em 
I gotta turn off the news so my kids don’t see another tragedy 
                     Dm           F 
I wanna let em stay innocent, at least for one more day 

                   Am                               Em 
Cause just when I think it can’t get worse, it gets worse 
                          Dm 
And there are no words to say 
                          F 
How much more can our hearts take? 


         C                          Em 
In this shattered place, where the shadows cover 
          Am                      F 
Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other 
          C                        Em 
My heart aches for home, right now more than ever 
         Am                 F 
But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven 
         Am               G              F 
And the promise that the day is drawing near 
                          Am     Em 
You will wipe away every tear 
                          Dm     F 
You will wipe away every tear 



verse 2 

              Am                            Em 
There will be no more terror, no more riots in the street 
            Dm                       F 
And we will all be seen, beyond the color of our skin 

          Am                            Em 
No more fighting, no more war, no more hunger left ignored 
          Dm                     
No more sickness, no more pain 
               F 
We’re here for now but we won’t stay 


         C                          Em 
In this shattered place, where the shadows cover 
          Am                      F 
Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other 
          C                        Em 
My heart aches for home, right now more than ever 
         Am                 F 
But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven 
         Am                      G       F 
And the promise that the day is drawing near 
                          C        G 
You will wipe away every tear 
                          Am       F 
You will wipe away every tear   Ooooh

Oh Lord be close to the broken-hearted 
            Dm 
We need you now 
             F 
We need you now 


         C                          Em 
In this shattered place, where the shadows cover 
          Am                      F 
Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other 
          C                        Em 
My heart aches for home, right now more than ever 
         Am                 F 
But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven 
         Am               G              F 
And the promise that the day is drawing near 
                 Am                  G            F 
When your great light will make the darkness disappear 
                                C           G 
And you will wipe away every tear,  every tear 
                          Am       F 
You will wipe away every tear
