 Word just came from upstate Joe

 Lower the flag again

 This time it's Dayton, southwest Ohio
      Am            C            F   C
Last night El Paso, Texas counted 22 dead

Am                   C             F              C
 Soon the brass will offer up their thoughts and prayers
Am                  C                F    C
 Soon there'll be protests in the street
        Am         C
And the media from out of town
       F              C
Will chew it up and spit it out

     Am                  C
Then move on to the next one
   F             C
Before we even grieve
            Am                 C
Yeah, then move on to the next one
   G
Before we even grieve

              F       C          Am             C
Some say we start to die on the day that we're born
       F                           C
But no one wants to live life on their knees
           F       C          Am             C
Maybe we start to die on the day that we're born
        Am         G               C
But we deserve to live life in between

A husband kissed the cross that bears his Margie's name
      Am            C             F     C
And promises he'll see her once again
              Am         C
Won't see her children grow
               F       C
Won't see their love grow old

                   Am            C
Last night their dream became a nightmare
           F               C
And their nightmare has no end
                   Am            C
Last night their dream became a nightmare
           G
And their nightmare has no end

But we deserve to live life in between

These days it's hard to sleep
           Am       C
When I lay my head down
                F         C
What if it was your loved one
      G
Laying on the ground
           F        C
I'm left to think about
       Am      C
What if, what now?
          F        C
Dear God I wanna pray
               F       C
But tonight I have my doubts
         F     C          G
When I think about those families now
