Intro:
(D)-(Bm)-(G)-(D)-(Bm)-(G)

Verse 1
I (D)stepped on to the crumbling (Bm)sidewalk
Of a (G)nation that claims to (D)be
(F#m7)A place of truth and(Bm7) freedom,
A (G)land of oppor(D)tunity.
"We trust in God," this (Bm7)nation proclaims,
(G)But trust died years (Bm)ago,
And (G)God is among the (D)list of names
Of (Asus4)people you don't (A)know.

Chorus 1
There is a (D)famine for (F#m7)love sweepin' this (Bm7)nation.
There's a (G)famine(D/F#) for peace of m(A)ind.
There's a (D)famine for (F#m)hope that's (Bm7)killin' my generation.
There's a (Em7)famine (G)killin' all man(C)kind.
(Asus4)-(A)

Verse 2
There's an (D)echoing distant (Bm7)memory
Of love that (G)died in the Aquarian (D)Age.
Now the(F#m7) air is thick with (Bm7)hatred;
Fear and (G)anger are turned into (D)rage.
My eyes are stinging with the (Bm7)tears that I weep
For the (G)death of souls and (Bm)lives-
Some (G)buried alive from (D)sadness,
Others (Asus4)perish from guns and (A)knives.

Verse 3
Oh, won't you (E)let me get you a (C#m)Doctor,
Who can (A)save your dying (E)spirit.
He's been (G#m)calling your name for a (C#m)long time,
Have you (A)listened? Can you (E)hear it?
A Man of sorrows and ac(C#m)quainted with grief,
(A)It was for you He (C#m)died.
And His (A)Word of life can (E)heal your soul
And (Bsus4)fill that empti(B)ness inside.

Chorus 2
There's a (E)famine for (G#m)love sweepin' this (C#m)nation.
There's a (A)famine (E/G#)for peace of (B)mind.
There is a (E)famine for (G#m)hope that's (C#m)killin' my generation.
There's a (F#m7)famine (A)killin' all man(D)kind.
