The Sound Of Crying

Intro:  Dmaj7Em7

Dmaj7     Em7

Hang out the flags a new world order's on the way

Dmaj7    Em7    A/B

Start singing now a song to greet the joyful day

Gmaj7

Just when we thought the time was right for celebrating

Em7

With music of the spheres

Gmaj7

What's this - Another boat of fleeing refuges on

Em7

A sea of children's tears?

(Chorus)

ABm

Once more the sound of crying

Em7

Is number one across the earth 

ABm

Once more the sound of crying

Em7

Is number one across the earth

Dmaj7   Em7

We're only men and women doing what we can

Dmaj7Em7

Sometimes I think that god is working to a plan

Gmaj7

Then other times I swear that he is improvising

Em7

- Discordant and remote

Gmaj7

Another orphan baby in failed uprising

Em7

Another real bum note

ABm

Once more the sound of crying

Em7

Is number one across the earth 

ABm

Once more the sound of crying

Em7

Is number one across the earth

ABmEm7

Once more the sound of crying

ABmEm7

Once more the sound of crying

Dmaj7      Em7

And if you're listening up there,

Dmaj7         Em7    A/B

You could consider this a prayer

Gmaj7

Well who am I to tell you how to run your business

Em7

Man, you could strike me blind

Gmaj7

What kind of noise we gotta make down here

Em7

Before we destroy your peace of mind

ABm

Once more the sound of crying

Em7

Is number one across the earth 

ABm

Once more the sound of crying

Em7

Is number one across the earth

ABmEm7

Once more the sound of crying

ABmEm7

Once more the sound of crying

Dmaj7      Em7

And if you're listening up there,

Dmaj7         Em7    A/B

You could consider this a prayer
