{title:Why?}
{st:by Tracy CHAPMAN}
[Bm]Why do the babies starve, there`s enough food to feed the world?
[G]Why, when there`s so many of us are [A]there people still alone?
[Bm]Why are the missiles called peacekeepers, when they`re aimed to kill?
[G]Why is a woman still not safe [A]when she`s in her home?
[Dadd9]Love is hate
[Aadd9] war is peace,
[Bm] no is yes,-
[G]we`re all free...
But, some[Bm]body`s gonna have to answer, the time is coming soon. Amidst
Amidst [G]all these questions and contradictions
there`re [A]some who seek the truth. Tell me...
Why do the babies starve, When there`s enough food to feed the world
Why when there`re so many of us, Are there people still alone
Why are the missiles called peace keepers, When they`re aimed to kill
Why is a woman still not safe, When she`s in her home?
Love is hate
War is peace
No is yes
And we`re all free
But somebody`s gonna have to answer
The time is coming soon
When the blind remove their blinders
And the speechless speak the truth
