Final Straw
Key: DEnglish
Dm
DmAs I raise my head to Cbroadcast my Dmobjection
As your latest triumph Cdraws the final straw Dm
Who died and lifted Cyou up to Dmperfection?
And what silenced me is Cwritten into law. Dm
I Ccan't believe where circumstance has Dmthrown me
And I Cturn my head Dmaway
If I Clook I'm not sure that I could Dmface you.
Not Amagain. Not Ctoday. Not Dmtoday.
DmIf hatred makes a play Con me Dmtomorrow
And forgiveness takes a Cback seat to Dmrevenge
There's a hurt down deep that Chas not been Dmcorrected
There's a voice in me that says Cyou will not win. Dm
And Cif I ignore the Dmvoice inside
CRaise a half glass to my Dmhome.
CBut it's there that I am Dmmost afraid
And Amforgetting doesn't Chold. it doesn't Dmhold.
Chorus
FNow I don't believe and I never did
That Dmtwo wrongs make a right.
If the Fworld were filled with the likes of you
Then I'm Dmputting up a fight. I'm putting up a Ffight.
Putting up a Dmfight. make it Amright. make it Cright. Dm
Now Dmlove cannot be Ccalled into question. Dm
Forgiveness is the Conly hope I hold. Dm
And love love Cwill be my strongest Dmweapon.
I do believe that I am Cnot alone. Dm
For this Cfear will not destroy Dmme.
And the Ctears that have been Dmshed
It's Cknowing now where I am Dmweakest
And the Amvoice in my Chead. in my Dmhead.
Chorus
Then I Craise my voice up Dmhigher
And I Clook you in the Dmeye
And I Coffer love with one Dmcondition.
With Amconviction tell me Cwhy.
Tell me Dmwhy.
Tell me Amwhy.
Look me in the Ceye.
Tell me Dmwhy.
