[Verse 1]
A#m G# Fm
Can't they see their land in peace?
A#m G# C#
Can't they hear their songs once more?
G# D#
Can't the waves of the sea
F# C# G# F# F
Go to lie in the sands of a free land?
A#m G# Fm
It's not a matter of belief
A#m G# C#
But the hopes seem to be gone
G# F#
And the waves of the sea
C# A#m F# F
Won't lie in the sands of a free land.
[Chorus]
A#m Fm G# D#
Freedom, deep inside their hearts
A#m Fm G# D#
They are pleading every day, every night.
[Verse 2]
A#m G# Fm
Can you just forget the times
A#m G# C#
When the kids could run outside
G# D#
With their games and their jokes,
F# C# G# F# F
With a smile and no fear in their faces?
A#m G# Fm
So they thought by praying hard
A#m G# C#
Soon their god would take a chance
G# F#
And that justice would grow
C# A#m F# F
And its strength would bring peace to their sorrows.(Sorrows)
[Chorus]
A#m Fm G# D#
Freedom, deep inside their hearts
A#m Fm G# D#
They are pleading every day, every night.
[Bridge]
F# G# Fm F#
And I know, Darling; it's not one more tear.
F# G# Fm F#
Yes, I know, honey; we'll have to leave.
F# G# A#m
Should we pray? Yes, I will!
F# G# D#
Should we fight? Yes, I will!
