The Calling – One By One (Guitar)

Em         D                C
He stands alone outside the blooming yards 

Em       D                C
All is calm there on the street 

Em           D            C
The shadows pass him hung right over 

Em              D                 C
The pain on his face he knew he'd keep... 

Em           D              C
His hair is long, and it's twisted, it's twisted 

Em          D                C
Around the smile spread cheek to cheek 

Em         D              C
Another child, another soul, grabs a hold 

      Em               D        C           
To the metal that will end his misery... 

G
One by one 

   D                 Em
We stand beneath the sun 

           C          D
With arms high open wide 

G
Two by two 

D
He's getting you 

Em                    C                D          Em  D  C
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew    

Em        D          C
How much anger is set aside

Em         D        C
As each one of us cries 

Em              D              C
Red light they come and they take him away 

Em                        D          C
In the thoughts, he'll be better, some day. 

Em              D
Tied tight, can't see out your eyes 

        C
That he's sure to shine, sure to shine 

Em                   D                 C
In this deep dark, played out, reality show 

   EM         D             C
So, who's the man, with the plan, 

                       EM
eating up all that he can? 

          D                C
Don't you see, don't you see... 

G
One by one 

   D                 Em
We stand beneath the sun 

           C          D
With arms high open wide 

G
Two by two 

D
He's getting you 

Em                    C                D
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew 

C                                     D
Do you ever think that things are meant to be? 

       C                                 D              
I know we all have our reasons why 

C                                       D
And now the power of one human being 

              C                           D
Has gone and changed so many lives... 

G
One by one 

   D                 Em
We stand beneath the sun 

           C          D
With arms high open wide 

G
Two by two 

D
He's getting you 

Em                    C                D          Em  D  C
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew    

G
One by one 

      D                                   Em   C  D
We start to come undone... 

G
Two by two 

        D                           Em    C   D
He's getting through to you... 

G                      D                                     Em
One by one we stand, we stand, we stand, over, 

C              D            Em
over, you...
