Flags

[D]Come, tell me your [A]trouble
I'm not your [Em]answer,
but [G]I'm a listening [D]ear

[D]Reality has left you [A]reeling
All facts and no [Em]feeling   [G]
No faith and all [D]fear

[Em]I don't know why the good man will fall
[Bm]While the wicked one stands
[Em]And our lives blow about
Like flags on the l[A]and

[D]Who's at fault is not i[A]mportant
Good intentions lie [Em]dormant      [G]
And we're all to [D]blame

While [D]apathy acts like an [A]ally
My enemy a[Em]nd I      [G]
Are one in the [D]same

[Em]I don't know why the innocents fall
[Bm]While the monsters still stand
[Em]And our lives blow about
Like flags on the [A]land

[Em]I don't know why our words are so proud
[Bm]Yet their promise so thin
[Em]And our lives blow about
Like flags in the [A]wind

[Em] [Bm] [Em] [A]

[Em]Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
[Bm]Oh oh oh oh oh
[G]Oh oh oh oh [D]oh oh oh oh [A]ohhhh

[G]You who mourn will be [D]comforted
You who [A]hunger will hunger no [Em]more
[G]All the last shall be [D]first, of this I am [A]sure

[G]You who weep now will [D]laugh again
All you [A]lonely, be lonely no [Em]more
[G]Yes the last will be [D]first, of this I am [A]sure

[Ending]
[Em]I don't know why the innocents fall
[Bm]While the monsters stand
[Em]I don't know why the little ones thirst
But [G]I know the [A]last shall be [Bm]first
[G]I know the [A]last shall be [Bm]first
[G]I know the [A]last shall be [Bm]first
