9.03 [Dm]in September
News reader wept, [Am]man,
we all can [C]remem[Am]ber
All I was left with was a wedding ring
But without [F]him this gold band
It just [E]don't mean a thing

[Verse 2]
And it [Am]all played out like
a bad [C]B- [Am]movie
But there were [Dm]holes in the [Am]plot
[Dm]And the acto[Am]rs didn'[C]t move me
[Am]You think that I'm mad
but I know to my core
I've [Dm]read the [F]of ficial truth
[Dm]But ther[F]e's a tr[E]uth worth fighting f[Am]or

[Verse 4]
[Am]Now I shout at shadows while
we swing at ghosts
Chase [Dm]cowards down corridors
While our children [C]grow

[Verse 5]
Do you [Am]know what it's like to scream
At the top of your lungs
And have [F]not one single person look [E]up
From their sums?
[Am]But I'll

[Verse 6]
bellow my son
till the day that I die
For the [Dm]fatherless children
And the [C]husband- less wives
[Am]And the military

[Verse 7]
man with his oil black [C]gun
[Am]Just patte[F]d my head and said
