[Intro]
Am C F C 2x

[Verse]
Am             C               F         C
Word just came from upstate Joe
Am            C        F C
Lower the flag again
Am                  C                          F C
This time it's Dayton, southwest Ohio
         Am                 C                     F   C
Last night El Paso, Texas counted 22 dead

[Instrumental]
Am C F C 2x

[Verse]
Am                          C                 F                        C
Soon the brass will offer up their thoughts and prayers
Am                        C                    F C
Soon there'll be protests in the street
               Am             C
And the media from out of town
          F                      C
Will chew it up and spit it out

[Pre-Chorus]
           Am                           C
Then move on to the next one
        F                  C
Before we even grieve
                    Am                          C
Yeah, then move on to the next one
       G
Before we even grieve

[Chorus]
                          F        C               Am                 C
Some say we start to die on the day that we're born
            F                                       C
But no one wants to live life on their knees
                    F           C              Am               C
Maybe we start to die on the day that we're born
              Am             G                  C
But we deserve to live life in between

[Instrumental]
Am C F C 2x

[Verse]
    Am                             C                           F             C
A husband kissed the cross that bears his Margie's name
        Am                   C                      F   C
And promises he'll see her once again
                        Am            C
Won't see her children grow
                        F          C
Won't see their love grow old

[Pre-Chorus]
                           Am                      C
Last night their dream became a nightmare
                 F                          C
And their nightmare has no end
                             Am                    C
Last night their dream became a nightmare
                  G
And their nightmare has no end

[Chorus]
                         F         C                Am                C
Some say we start to die on the day that we're born
                F                                  C
But no one wants to live life on their knees
                       F       C              Am                C
Maybe we start to die on the day that we're born
             Am             G                   C
But we deserve to live life in between

[Bridge]
                      F                C
These days it's hard to sleep
                  Am            C
When I lay my head down
                          F             C
What if it was your loved one
           G
Laying on the ground
               F           C   
I'm left to think about
         Am          C
What if, what now?
                  F            C
Dear God I wanna pray
                       F            C
But tonight I have my doubts
               F        C               G
When I think about those families now
