Intro 1
(D major)
Verse 1
(D major) In this troubled world today
We're (A major) asked to lend a hand (D major)
Which I will, but first with me
Comes my (A major) own native land (D major)
Gladly (G major) will I help this world
And (D major) give all that I can
It isn't selfishness but first
Comes (A major) my own native land (D major)
Is it right that we should give
And (A major) give until it hurts (D major)
To a foreign land that treats us
Just (A major) like so much (D major) dirt
(G major) Those who lead us have forgotten
Love (D major) is in the soul
Love cannot be purchased with
The (A major) promise of more gold (D major)
Giving brings a lot of joy
And (A major) this I do believe (D major)
But aren't the ones who give so much
En (A major) titled to receive (D major)
Why (G major) do we keep on giving
Is it right (D major) that we should please
The very ones who'd like to see
Our (A major) country on her knees (D major)
If we must give then we should use
A (A major) different policy (D major)
And give to only those who treat us
(A major) Fair and honestly (D major)
We (G major) give to those who quickly take it
Pos (D major) ing as a friend
Then just as quickly turn and bite
The (A major) hand that's feeding them (D major)
I'll be accused but I don't feel
I'm (A major) acting selfishly (D major)
'Cause I believe the country that
Remain (A major) s strong will stay free (D major)
To (G major) give is great but are we giving
More (D major) than we can stand
I question this, cause first with me
Comes (A major) my own native land (D major)
I question this, cause first with me
Comes (A major) my own native land
(D major)
