KEY OFECJ TIMEI SIM

4 BAR INTRO

WHERE WERE YOU
WHEN THE WORLD
STOPPED TURNIN'
ON THAT
SEPTEMBER DAY

OUT IN THE YARD
WITH YOUR WIFE
AND CHILDREN
0R WORKIN' ON
SOME STAGE IN LA.

DID YOU STAND THERE
IN SHOCK
AT THE SIGHT OF
THAT BLACK SMOKE
RISING AGAINST THAT
BLUE SKY

DID YOU SHOUT OUT
IN ANGER
AND FEAR FOR
YOUR NEIGHBDR
0R DID YOU JUST
SIT DOWN AND CRY

DID YOU WEEP FOR
THE CHILDREN
THAT LOST THEIR
DEAR LOVED ONES
AND PRAY FOR THE ONES
WHO DON'T KNOW

DID YOU REJOICE
FOR THE PEOPLE
WHO WALKED FROM
THE RUBBLE
AND SOB FOR THE ONES
LEFT BELOW

DID YOU BURST OUT
IN PRIDE
FOR THE RED WHITE

AND BLUE
AND THE HEROS VUHO DIED
JUST DOIN' VUHAT THEY DO

I'M JUST A SINGER
0F SIMPLE SONGS
I'M NOT A

REAL POLITICAL MAN

I WATCH CNN
BUT I'M NOT SURE
I CAN TELL YOU
THE DIFFERENCE
IN IRAQ AND IRAN

g

BUT I KNOW JESUS
AND I TALK TO GOD
AND I REMEMBER THIS
FROM INHEN
I WAS YOUNG

FAITH HOPE AND LOVE
ARE SOME GOOD THINGS
HE GAVE US
AND THE GREATEST
IS LOVE

WHERE WERE YOU
WHEN THE WORLD
STOPPED TURNIN'
ON THAT SEPTEMBER
DAY

TEACHING A CLASS
FULL OF INNOCENT
CHILDREN
DRIVING DOWN
SOME COLD INTERSTATE

DID YOU FEEL GUILTY
BAUSE YOU'RE
A SURVIVOR
IN A CROWDED ROOM
DID YOU FEEL ALONE

DID YOU CALL UP
YOUR MOTHER
AND TELL HER
YOU LOVE HER

DID YOU DUST OFF

THAT BIBLE AT HOME

DID YOU OPEN
YOUR EYES
AND HOPE IT NEVER
HAPPENED
CLOSE YOUR EYES
AND NOT GO TO SLEEP

DID YOU NOTICE
THE SUNSET
THE FIRST TIME IN AGES
SPEAK T0 SOME
STRANGER
ON THE STREET

DID YOU LAY DOWN
AT NIGHT
AND THINK OF

TOMORROW
GO OUT AND BUY YOU
A GUN

DID YOU TURN OFF
THAT VIOLENT OLD MOVIE
YOU'RE WATCHING
AND TURN ON
I LOVE LUCY RERUNS

DID YOU JUST STAY HOME
AND CLING TIGHT
TO YOUR FAMILY
THANK GOD
YOU HAD SOMEBODY
TO LOVE

I'M JUST A SINGER
0F SIMPLE SONGS
I'M NOT A

REAL POLITICAL MAN

I WATCH CNN
BUT I'M NOT SURE
I CAN TELL YOU
THE DIFFERENCE
IN IRAQ AND IRAN
