Key: A Minor BPM: ♩ = 85 Time: 4/4
|Am     |E/G#     |G     |D/F#     |
|Am     |E/G#     |G     |D/F#     |

|Am                           |E/G#                        |
   There are children standing here, arms outstretched into
   |G                         |D/F#                  |
the sky, tears drying on their face, he has been here
|Am                       |E/G#                        |
   Brothers lie in shallow graves, fathers lost without
 |G                                |D/F#                      |
a trace, a nation blind to their disgrace since he's been here

|Am               |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
   And I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore
       |Am                   |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
Only sadness, and I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore
       |F   |D/F#     |F   |D/F#   E/G#   |
Only sadness,  only sadness

|Am                     |E/G#                                  |
   Houses burnt beyond repair, the smell of death is in the air
|G                     |D/F#                        |
   A woman weeping in despair says, he has been here
|Am                      |E/G#                               |
   Tracer lighting up the sky, it’s another families' turn to
|G                              |D/F#                      |
 die, a child afraid to even cry out says, he has been here

|Am               |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
   And I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore
       |Am                   |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
Only sadness, and I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore
       |F   |D/F#   |F   |D/F#   E/G#   |
Only sadness

|Am                           |E/G#                        |
   There are children standing here, arms outstretched into
   |G                                |D/F#                 |
the sky, but no one asks the question why, he has been here
|Am                              |E/G#                             |
   Old men kneel and accept their fate, wives and daughters cut and
|G                              |D/F#                        |
 raped, a generation drenched in hate, says, he has been here

|Am               |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
   And I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore
       |Am                   |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
Only sadness, and I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore

|Am     |E/G#     |G     |D/F#     |
|Am     |E/G#     |G     |D/F#     |

|Am               |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
   And I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore
       |Am                   |E/G#    |G              |D/F#        |
Only sadness, and I see no bravery, no bravery in your eyes anymore
    |F      |D/F#     |F   |D/F#   E/G#   |
Only sadness,  only sadness
