[Verse 1]
(Eyes)
Bm Bm We see the pain, we know it’s not fair F#m F#m We advert our eyes, but_we know it's there Bm Bm My eyes are blind, I do not see F#m C#7 I filter what will please me
[Chorus]
A E G D Oh, Lord I pray to thee, that we will learn from yesterday A E G D Bm Bm We_were born with 5 gifts from you, but rarely use them as_we ought to do
[Verse 2]
(Touch)
Bm Bm Touch should heal, not hold a gun F#m F#m Abandom them, one by one. Bm Bm Pick up a pen, write it down F#m C#7 Share with the world, what can be done
[Chorus]
A E G D Oh, Lord I pray to thee, that we will learn from yesterday A E G D Bm Bm We_were born with 5 gifts from you, but rarely use them as_we ought to do
[Verse 3]
(Sound)
Bm Bm We hear the cries, the screams, the fears F#m F#m Of the poor, the suffering, the ringing in the ears (soft) Bm Bm Some are silent, some are loud F#m C#7 But all are deafening, as a storm cloud
[Chorus]
A E G D Oh, Lord I pray to thee, that we will learn from yesterday A E G D Bm Bm We_were born with 5 gifts from you, but rarely use them as_we ought to do
[Verse 4]
(Smell)
Bm Bm The smell of gunpowder, smell of damp F#m F#m Smell of sewerage, from_the Refugee camp Bm Bm Yet in the garden, the flowers are blooming F#m C#7 Freshness of new life, ever growing
[Chorus]
A E G D Oh, Lord I pray to thee, that we will learn from yesterday A E G D Bm Bm We_were born with 5 gifts from you, but rarely use them as_we ought to do
[Verse 5]
(Taste)
Bm Bm The bitter aftertaste, you get in your mouth F#m F#m The lump in your throat, you_just can’t get out. Bm Bm Sour and sweet, we savour the feeling F#m C#7 But when you’re hungry, taste has no meaning
[Chorus]
A E G D Oh, Lord I pray to thee, that we will learn from yesterday A E G D Bm Bm We_were born with 5 gifts from you, but rarely use them as_we ought to do
[Verse 6]
(Hope)
Bm Bm Listen for a response when you say a prayer, F#m F#m Taste the unknown, do not despair Bm Bm Smell the flowers, look_for the good, F#m C#7 Open up your mind, as_you know you should
[Chorus]
A E G D Oh, Lord I pray to thee, that we will learn from yesterday A E G D We_were born with 5 gifts from you, but rarely use them as_we ought to do A E G D Oh, Lord I pray to thee, that we will learn from yesterday A E G D A N.C. We_were born with 5 gifts from you, but rarely use them as_we ought to do
