Selfishness In Man

        A              D              A               E
I saw a little beam of sunlight steal across a purple sky
         D              A               B             E
And bend down to kiss a rosebud, oh, it made me wanna cry
              A             D               A                E
To think that I had been permitted to see a part of nature's plan
            D                   A                 D           E  A
Oh, there's nothin' that stands out more than the selfishness in man

A                        D               A               E
Little children paintin' pictures of the birds and apple trees
        D                  A               B               E
Oh, why can't the grown-up people have the faith of one of these
       A                D             A                 E
And to think those tiny fingers might become a killer's hand
            D                   A                 D           E  A
Oh, there's nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man.

    E                A             E              A
Why can't we see the folly and the uselessness of hate
           E             A             B            E    A
Love could lead to understanding maybe it's not too late
     A                            D                A            E
Then perhaps through in His great wisdom, we might learn to understand
             D     A                   D              E  A
Then there'd be no shame or sorrow and no selfishness in man.
