[Verse]
Dm7
Every day, Every day
Every day, Every day
Dm7
Every day that goes by,
a new hungry baby starts to cry
born astride a painful grave,
drowned in hunger's tidal wave.
Bb Gm7 Am7
Pick a child that you can save, it'd be the only one.
Dm7
If Africa escapes starvation,
not only food but education
the desert grows with every minute,
trapping everybody in it.
Bb Gm7 Am7
All the children look the same, they wonder why they came.
[Chorus]
Bb Am7
(But) it's hard to tell the poison from the cure
Gm7 Dm C Dm
harder still to know the reson why (why why)
Am7
the only thing I really know for sure
Gm7 Eb
Is that another day, another day's gone by
Dm7
(Bye bye...)
[Verse 2]
Dm7
Every day that goes by,
a brand new missile points towards the sky
we're survivors of a game of chance,
beneath an arms race avalanche.
Bb Gm7 Am7
If you survive this winter's cold, you'd be the only one.
Dm7
If we escape anhillation,
not only hope but education
the world is ruled by Bellophiles
adding to their weapon piles.
Bb Gm7 Am7
Imagine what your taxes buy, we hardly ever try.
[Chorus]
Bb Am7
(But) it's hard to tell the poison from the cure
Gm7 Dm C Dm
harder still to know the reson why (why why)
Am7
the only thing I really know for sure
Gm7 Eb
Is that another day, another day's gone by.
Dm7
(Bye bye...)
[Verse 3]
Bm7
Oh that this too sullied flesh
would melt and resolve into a dew
suffocating lassitude,
drowning in my platitude.
G Em7 F#m7
Trapped by insecurities, I'm not the only one.
Bm7
If I survive this dislocation,
have to use my education
G
the world is ruled by Bellophiles,
adding to their weapon piles.
Em7 F#m7 A
Imagine what your taxes buy, we hardly ever try
[Chorus]
G F#m7
(But) it's hard to tell the poison from the cure
Em7 Bm A Bm
harder still to know the reson why (why why)
G F#m7
The only thing I really know for sure
Em7 C
is that another day, another day's gone by
Bm
(Bye bye...)
