Em   D   C   C
Em   D   C   C
Ah  Ah Ahh


[Refrain]
          Em            D
I'm at a loss for words
         C       C
And my heart, it hurts
          Em            D
I'm at a loss for words
         C       C
And my heart, it hurts


[Verse 1]
             Em                D
Things goin' on in this world: so absurd
C                      C
Mr. President tell me, what's the word?
Em                        D
Sellin' ammunition to the mentally ill
 C                         C
Just to make a penny while innocent get killed
 Em                    D
Turn on the news and I heard them sounds
         C                      C
From the 32nd floor, gunshots rainin' down
 Em                    D
All those lives lost, what a pity
     C                           C
Just tryna have a good time down in Sin City
     Em                              D
This ain't the first occasion, but I hope it's the last
C                             C
Kindergardeners can feel safe goin' to class
      Em                        D
Wanna walk down the street, not look behind my back
     C                      C
As a MAC rip through a venue fully packed and
C
blast...


[Chorus]
              Em              C
This one's for Columbine, this one for Paris
    Em                          D
And one for all the lives lost in Las Vegas
        Em             C
This one  for Cali and for Miami
         Em                D
This one   for London and no I'm not done
     Em               C
This one for Iraq, Yemen, and Saudi
       Em                D
And for Syria and those murdered babies
        Em              C
'Member Africa and for Hiroshima
 Em                   D
Pearl Harbor and the World Trade Center
     Em            C
For Chicago and Jerusalem
     Em                     D
Come on people put down the guns!
              Em             C
This ones for   everyone who has lost someone
    Em                          D
Who cannot be brought back with words


[Refrain]
          Em            D
I'm at a loss for words
         C       C
And my heart, it hurts
          Em            D
I'm at a loss for words
         C       C
And my heart, it hurts
Em   D   C   C
Ah   Ah Ahh


[Verse 2]
        Em                         D
I wanna know in their heads what is  going on
         C             C
Too many situations to fit in one song
      Em                       D
Wanna have a good time with my friends in the club
         C                                C
Without talk 'bout gettin' shot while I'm tryna make love
        Em                       D
So many    so many now with the man up above
           C             C
While we're all left to clean up the blood
          Em                             D
Children left with no parents, parents left with no children
                C                          C
And when you really break it down it's all for no good reason
  Em                             D
I don't got all the answers, so tell me who does
C                       C
All I really know is we really need love
  Em                             D
I don't got all the answers, so tell me who does
 C                       C
All I really know is we really need love


[Chorus]
              Em              C
This one's for Columbine, this one for Paris
    Em                          D
And one for all the lives lost in Las Vegas
        Em             C
This one  for Cali and for Miami
         Em                D
This one   for London and no I'm not done
     Em               C
This one for Iraq, Yemen, and Saudi
       Em                D
And for Syria and those murdered babies
        Em              C
'Member Africa and for Hiroshima
 Em                   D
Pearl Harbor and the World Trade Center
     Em            C
For Chicago and Jerusalem
     Em                     D
Come on people put down the guns!
              Em             C
This ones for   everyone who has lost someone
    Em                          D
Who cannot be brought back with words


[Verse 3]
Em                      D
Lives of the land from sea to sea
       C                                 C
We all share the same blood when there's no need to bleed
Em                  D
  At the hands of another man
      C                 C
But I understand if it's  self defense
    Em                         D
But there will be no reason to defend
          C                        C
If we can all live as one and join hands


[Refrain]
          Em            D
I'm at a loss for words
         C       C
And my heart, it hurts
          Em            D
I'm at a loss for words
         C       C
And my heart, it hurts
Em   D   C   C
Em   D   C   C
