She had two babies, one was six months, one was three
A
In the war of '44
E
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging
C#m B A2
When she thought it was God calling her
C#m B A2
Oh, would her son grow to know his father?
E B/D# C#m B
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
A G#m F#m B
I want to know right now what will it be
E B/D# C#m B
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
A2 G#m F#m
Will it be yes or will it be sorry

He showed up all wet on the rainy front step
A2
Wearing shrapnel in his skin
E
And the war he saw lives inside him still
C#m B A2
It's so hard to be gentle and warm
C#m B A2
The years pass by and now he has granddaughters

E4
Ohhh, so look at me from across the room
F#m
You're wearing your anguish again
G
Believe me I know the feeling
D A
It sucks you into the jaws of anger
E4
Ohhh, so breathe a little more deeply
F#m
All we have is this very moment
G
And I don't want to do what his father
D
And his father, and his father did
E
I want to be here now
D A/C#
So open up your morning light
Bm A2
And say a little prayer for I

You know that if we are to stay alive
Bm A2
Then see the peace in every eye
