Intro

I saw the morning

  it was shattered by a gun

  heard the scream, saw him fall

  no one cried

I saw a mother

  she was praying for her son

  bring him back, let him live

  don't let him die

  Do you ever ask yourself

  is there a heaven in the sky....

  why can't we get it right?

  'cause we all live under the same sun

  we all walk under the same moon (yeah!)

  -flat.maj

then why? why? , can't we live as one?

I saw the evening

  fading shadows one by one

  we watched the lamb lay down to

  the sacrifice

I saw the children

  the children of the sun

  how they wept, how they bled

  how they died

  Do you ever ask yourself

  is there a heaven in the sky....

  why can't we stop the fight?

  'Cause we all live under the same sun

  we all walk under the same moon (yeah!)

  -flat.maj.

then why? why? , can't we live as one?

Bridge

  Sometimes I think I'm going mad

( day after day, day after day)

  -flat.maj.

we are losing all we had

( day after day, day after day)

  and no one seem to care, yeah!

( day after day, day after day)

  But in my heart it doesn't change

( day after day, day after day)

  -flat maj.

we've got to rearrange

( day after day, day after day)

  and bring our world some love, yeah!, yeah!

( day after day, day after day)

Solo

-flat.maj (x2 times)

  And does it really matter?

  if there's a heaven up above

  we sure could use some love

  'Cause we all live under the same sky

  we all look up at the same stars (yeah!)

  -flat.maj.

then why? why? , can't we live as one? (hey!)

  'Cause we all live under the same sun

  we all walk under the same moon (yeah!)

  we all live under the same sky

  we all look up at the same stars (yeah!)

  -flat.maj.

then why? tell me why? , can't we live as one?
