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