[Verse 1]
Strangers once were [Cm]welcome in your h[D]ouse
You [Em]once were kind to those
[Adim]who stood beneath
your [Em]torch on the [Cm]dark and windy porch [Adim]of libe[Cm]rty,[G]
waiting [Cm]for a man [G]we'd come to see,
waiting [Cm]for our moment to be f[G]ree.
[D]Huddled masses hungered
[G]for your breast
You [Cm]once were [Em]faithful to the [Cdim]words that
ringed your base
[Em]And the [Cdim]smile up[Cm]on your
[Adim]face of liberty[G]
But your [Cm]eye s are carved
in steel [G]and will not see
Your [Cm]body is [Eb]not w[Cm]arm for them o[G]r me
[Em]Oh, if I[C] could o[Gbdim]nly give
you [Em]life [Am]as
God gave
life [Gbdim]to me
Maybe [Em]then,
if you could [Am]see what they h[B]ave
done your [C]metal [Gbdim]eyes woul[Cdim]d run with[B] tear[E]s for all [Am]the
blood you could not [F#m]shed f[F#dim]or the ge[Cdim]ntle and
The [F#dim]dead who [Cdim]loved y[B]ou so
[C]Our dream is gone,
[Cm]but how [Adim]are you [B]to know?
The torch [Am]has not [B]been passed,
[Am]it does [B]not glow
But we still wait
But we still wait
But we [G]still wait
[B]But we still wait
But we still wait.
[Dm]But we still[Eb] wait.
But [D]we still wait.
[Bb]But we s[B]till wait.[G]
[B]But we still wait.
[Dm]But
we still wait.
But we
But we still
But we
But
You
