C#m B A E Let this be my annual reminder that we can all be something bigger E E E I went to your schools, I did my detention But the walls are so gray, I couldn’t pay attention E I heard your gospel- it moved me to tears, But I couldn’t find the hate, and I couldn’t find the fear E I met your Savior, I knelt at his feet, And he took my ten bucks, and he went down the street E I tried to believe all the things that you said, A F# But my friends that aren’t dying are already dead.
