____Verse:1
Bbmaj.7/
War mon---gers terrorize us all,
Our leaders heed us to their call.
Stone--wallin, voices calling,
---
Drowning in the tears of the world.
____Verse:2
Big business calling ev'ry tune,
Polluting here and to the moon.
All----nations, conservations,
Drowning in the tears of the world.
____Bridge:1
But your lives worth saving,
We should start behaving
Like the truth's been told by saviours through our time.
Your downfall, you'll bring it on yourselves.
____Verse:3
All war---nings fall upon deaf ears,
Their scorn compounding my worst fears.
Bbmaj.7
No way out, hopeless souls shout,
----
Drowning in the tears of the world.

____Bridge:2
Where's your love been sleeping?
Has your heart been weeping
Over all unrighteous action in the world
Where bad jazz seems all they're laying down?
____Verse:4
Bbmaj.7/
No use in---turning your blind eye,
You feel the heat as you fry.
Try----your best, you'll find no rest,

Drowning in the tears of the world.

It's a sure bet, each pays his debts,

Drowning in the tears of the world.

(on your end) as originally set as well as coming up with alternative

Thanks
NOTE:
1981 / WB having rejected his new album "Somewhere In England", Harrison, back at the
drawing board, once again found himself in the recording studio re-touching & composing 4
songs to replace the 4 pulled from the album, This was one of the songs pulled & along
the other 3, can be found on:
1.George Harrison "Pirate Songs"
2.George Harrison "Completed Rarities Vol. 1
3.George Harrison "Somewhere In England"
( original version and track list w/ bonus tracks )
All which I won on eBay years ago but may now be available in some stores. Can
also be on "Youtube"
