Verse 1
(A minor) As I raise my head to
broad (G major) cast my (E minor) objec (A minor) tion
As your latest triumph
draws (G major) the final (A minor) straw
Who died and lifted you (G major) up to perfec (E minor) (A minor) tion?
And what silenced me is writ (G major) ten into (A minor) law
Verse 2
(A minor)
I (G major) can't believe where
circumstance has (A minor) thrown me
And I turn (G major) my head away (A minor)
If I look (G major) I'm not sure that I could (A minor) face you
Not again. (E minor) Not today. (G major) Not today.
(A minor)

Verse 3
If hatred makes a play (G major) on me tomor (E minor) (A minor) row
And forgiveness takes a back
seat (G major) to (A minor) revenge
There's a hurt down deep that has
(G major) not been correc (A minor) ted
There's a voice in me
that says (G major) you will not (A minor) win
Verse 4
(A minor)
And (G major) if I ignore the (A minor) voice inside
Raise a (G major) half glass to my home (A minor)
But it's (G major) there that I am (A minor) most afraid
And forgetting (E minor) doesn't
(G major) hold. It doesn't hold.
(A minor)
Verse 5
Now I don't (C major) believe
and I never did
That two (A minor) wrongs make a right
If the (C major) world were filled
with the likes of (A minor) you
Then I'm putting up a fight.
I'm putting up a fight (C major) .
Putting up a fight (A minor) . Make it right. (E minor)
(G major) Make it right.
(A minor)
Verse 6
(A minor) Now love cannot be called
(G major) into ques (E minor) tion (A minor)
Forgiveness is the only (G major) hope I (A minor) hold
And love - love will be (G major) my
strongest (E minor) (A minor) weapon
I do believe that I (G major) am not alone (A minor)
Verse 7
(A minor)
For this (G major) fear will not destroy (A minor) me
And the tears (G major) that have been shed (A minor)
It's knowing now (G major) where I am (A minor) weakest
And the voice (E minor) in my (G major) head. In my (A minor) head.
Verse 8
Then I (G major) raise my voice up (A minor) higher
And I (G major) look you in the eye (A minor)
And I (G major) offer love with one
con (A minor) dition
With convic (E minor) tion, tell me (G major) why.
Tell me why. (A minor)
Tell me why. (E minor)
Look me in the (G major) eye.
Outro 1
Tell me why.
(A minor) (E minor) (G major) (A minor)
