[VERSE]
[G]Dear Mr. President,
[D] -[F#] [Em7] [D/F#]
come take a walk with me
Let's pre[G]tend we're just two people
[D] -[F#]
and you're not better than me
I'd like to [Em7]ask you some questions
if we can [D/F#]speak honestly
[C] [Em] [Am] [G]
W[D]hat do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street'
[C]Who do [Em]you p[Am]ray for at night bef[G]ore you go to s[D]leep'
[C]What do[Em] you [Am]feel when you look in the m[Em]irror' [D]
Are you [Cadd9]proud'
[REFREIN]
How do you [G]sleep while the [D]rest of us [Am]cry' [C]
[G] [D] [Am] [Em7]
How[C] do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye'
How do you [G]walk with your [D]head held [C]high'
Can you even [Em7]look me i[D]n the e[C]ye'
And tell me [G]why
verse 2:(repeat first verse chords)
Dear Mr. President Were you a lonely boy'
Are you a lonely boy' Are you a lonely boy'
How can you say' No child is left behind.
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell
[C] [Em7] [Am] [G]
What k[D]ind of father would take his own daughter's rights away'
[C] [Em7] [Am] [G]
And what ki[D]nd of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay'
[C]I can o[Em7]nly ima[Am]gine what the first l[G]ady has to s[D]ay'
You've come a [Em7]long way from whiskey and c[Am]ocaine!
