We're not alone

G          D/F#                 Em     Em7/D

Why do fear what we don't understand

                     C        D            G

Can we reach out our hands to try just say hello

B              C                 D

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need

           Em    D         Em      B   C

To make it grow - just say hello

                D

And when you're far from home

       G          D/F#     Em   Em7/D

Try to learn from what you see

     C                  D              G

Your eyes will tell you everything you need





Why do we dread what we don't really know

Come not as concubine - come not as foe

Come with intentions clearly shown

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need

To make it grow - just say hello

And though you're far from home

Try to learn from all you see          C    G/B  Am   D

Your mind will tell you everything you need

C       G/B           Am

Here we go - ain't it grand

        Am               F

Here we stand on foreign sand

              G

And we're not alone

C    E                 Am

Red, yellow, black and white

      Am               F

Every man stand in the light

          G

Stand not alone





E                           Am

It's not a lie - it's not a sham

            Am                 F

we play for keeps - it's not a scam

F                          G

No bigotry - we're hand in hand

           G                 E

It ain't a cinch - we make a stand

            Am              Bb     C

We learn to live on foreign sand

         D       E

Just say hello





A             E/G#                   F#m      F#m7/E

Why do we despise when we can't even speak

                     D                E

We keep on spreading lies - far as we know

                     F#m

It's the only way to be

C#             D                 E

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need

           F#m             F#m    C#   D

To make it grow - just say hello

                  E

And though you're far from home

       A          E/G#      F#m

Try to learn what you could be

     D                   E              F

Your heart will tell you everything you need



F                 G

And though you're far from home

       C          G/B       Am

Try to learn what you could be

     F                   G              C

Your heart will tell you everything you need



                F              G                C

Even though you stand here you stand on foreign sand

Ain't it grand here we stand - on foreign sand

Together we stand - here we stand on foreign sand
