Verse
D G D
You know, sometimes I just don’t like living in this world at a-a-all
G D A
Sometimes, when I read the newspapers, it sickens my soul
D G D
In the paper this morning there was a photograph on page three-e-e
G D A D
Of Daniel smiling, Daniel smiling smiling at me.
[Verse 2]
D G D
He was black-eyed and beaten, bruised, abused and aba-a-ased
G D A
His life-story written for all to read on his face
D G D
But still without hate, as only young children can be-e-e
G D A D
He was smiling. He was smiling, smiling at me.
[Chorus]
D G D
Ah the look in his eyes
G D
The hope in his eyes
G D A D
And the trust in his eyes changed us all.
[Verse 3]
D G D
They say the bastard who killed him, he lived through the very same he-e-ell
G D A
And that terror and pain were his childhood companions as well
D G D
But brutalized children become adults who then brutali-i-ize
G D A D
It’s not surprising. It’s not surprising that Daniel died.
[Verse 4]
D G D
Now the experts who say this, those professional prophets of care
G D A
Those who counted the bruises, who catalogued when, why and where
D G D
When they've satisfied, their own narrow job protoco-o-ol
G D A D
They did nothing. They did nothing, nothing at all.
[Chorus]
D G D
Ah the look in his eyes
G D
The hope in his eyes
G D A D
And the trust in his eyes changed us all.
[Verse 5]
D G D
Now, we invented the system so we’d always have something to blame
G D A
And next week, or next month, when the system fails us again
D G D
When I open my paper that morning, I know what I’ll see
G D A D
Another Daniel. Another Daniel, smiling at me.
[Chorus]
D G D
Ah the look in his eyes
G D
The hope in his eyes
G D A D
And the trust in his eyes changed us all.
