Am                            F 
I've kept it inside much too long 
              Am 
there's no relief 
Am                             F 
carried it around just like a stone 
              Am 
too heavy for me

I have paid the price for standing

it's time to let the healing begin

his mother weeps 
Am                                        F 
his spirit is broken and there's nothing left 
                 Am 
just a terrible need 
F                       G                         F 
and the days are marked, by the heaviness of the heart

it never mends, until the healing begins 



C                 G                         C 
and the tension prowls the street like an animal 
C                 G                       C 
the people stay behind their locks and chains 
         F 
it's a shame 
G                             Am       Em     Dm 
when so many are trying their best to live as one 
F                              G           Am 
and the smoke from the fires covers up the sun

her dreams ended there 
Am                                     F 
caught in the crossfire on somebody's turf 
              Am 
hatred in the air 


F                        G 
it' a voice that never sings 
F                      G 
a winter without the spring 
         Em/D 
it never ends 

F                    G         Am       Em  Dm 
it's time to let the healing begin

it's time to let the healing begin
