When the children cry

1. [G] Little [D] child [Em] dry your [Bm] crying eyes
[C] How can [G] I explain the [Em] fear you [D] feel inside
[G] Cause you were [D] born [Em] into this [Bm] evil world
[C] Where man is [C] killing man and [Em] no one knows just [D] why
[C] What have [Bm] we become [Em] just look what [Bm] we have done
[C] All that [G] we destroyed [Em] you must build a-[D] gain

Chorus:When the [Em] children [Bm] cry let them [C] know we [G] tried
Cause when [Em] the child-[Em] ren sing then [C] the new [D] world begins

2. [G] Little [D] child [Em] you must [Bm] show the way
[C] To a [G] better day for [Em] all the [D] young
[G] Cause [D] you were [Em] born for all [Bm] the world to see
[C] That we all can live with [Em] love and [D] peace
[C] No more [Bm] presidents [Em] and all the [Bm] wars will end
[C] One uni-[G] ted world [Em] under [D] God

[C] One uni-[G] ted world [Em] under [D] God.

When the [Em] children [Bm] cry let them [C] know we [G] tried
When the [Em] children [Bm] fight let them [C} know it ain’t [D] right
When the [Em] children [Bm] pray let them [C] know the [G] way
