[D] [A] [D] [E] [A]

I saw a [A]little beam of [D]sunlight steal [A]across a purple [E]sky
And bend [D]down to kiss a [A]rosebud, oh, it [B]made me wanna [E]cry
To [A]think that I had been per m[D]itted to see a p[A]art of nature's p[E]lan
Oh, there's [D]nothin' that stands [A]out more than the [D]selfishness [E]in [A]man

Little [D]children paintin' [G]pictures of the [D]birds and apple [A]trees
Oh, why [G]can't the grown [D]up people have the [E]faith of one of [A]these
And to [D]think those tiny [G]fingers might be c[D]ome a killer's h[A]and
Oh, there's [G]nothing that [D]stands out more [D/F#]than the [G]selfishness [A]in [D]man.

Why [A]can't we see the [D]folly and the [A]uselessness of [D]hate
Love could [A]lead to under s[D]tanding m[D/F#]aybe i[E]t's not loo l[A]ate [A/G] [A/F#] [A/E]
Then per h[D]aps in His great w[G]isdom we might l[D]earn to under st[A]and
Then there'd [G]be no shame [D]or sorrow [D/F#]and no [G]selfishness [A]in [D]man.
