D5 A5
Four-year-old at play
B5
Shot and killed today
G5
Never even had a chance
D5 A5
Seventeen and high
B5
Threw away his life
G5
Has a gun to feel like he's a man
Can't have it any other way
D5 A5
Laying in the street
B5
Asking for a drink
G5
Doesn't have a place to live
D5 A5
Pregnant at thirteen
B5
Still can hear the screams
G5
Something that she never will forget
Can't have it any other way
D5 A5 B5 G5
I'm trying to open my mind
D5 E5 D5 G5
G5
So you can keep your faith
D5
And I'll just walk away
A5
There's no reason for me to stay
Can't have it any other way
D5 A5 B5 G5
I'm trying to open my mind
D5 A5 B5 G5
I'm trying to open my mind
D5 A5 B5 G5 D
I'm trying to make my mind
