Final Straw
Ton : DEnglish
Dm
ADms I raise my head to broadCcast my objectioDmn
As your latest triumph drawCs the final strawDm
Who died and lifted yoCu up to perfDmection?
And what silenced me is Cwritten into law.Dm
IC can't believe where circumstance has thrDmown me
And I tCurn my head awaDmy
If I loCok I'm not sure that I could fDmace you.
Not agaAmin. Not todCay. Not todaDmy.
IDmf hatred makes a playC on me tomorroDmw
And forgiveness takes a baCck seat to reveDmnge
There's a hurt down deep that haCs not been correDmcted
There's a voice in me that says yoCu will not win.Dm
And Cif I ignore the voiDmce inside
RaiCse a half glass to my hoDmme.
BuCt it's there that I amDm most afraid
And forgettinAmg doesn't holCd. it doesn't hoDmld.
NFow I don't believe and I never did
That twDmo wrongs make a right.
If the worFld were filled with the likes of you
Then I'm pDmutting up a fight. I'm putting up a fiFght.
Putting up a fiDmght. make it righAmt. make it rigCht. Dm
Now lovDme cannot be caClled into question.Dm
Forgiveness is the onCly hope I hold. Dm
And love love wiCll be my strongest weDmapon.
I do believe that I amC not alone.Dm
For this feCar will not destroy mDme.
And the teaCrs that have been shDmed
It's knoCwing now where I am wDmeakest
And the voAmice in my heCad. in my heaDmd.
Then I raCise my voice up higDmher
And I looCk you in the eDmye
And I ofCfer love with one condDmition.
With conAmviction tell me whCy.
Tell me wDmhy.
Tell me wAmhy.
Look me in the eyCe.
Tell me wDmhy.
