A Million Conversations

Smokie


Tom: G

G C etc. 

      G
We can try to understand 
     Em
It's something we should know 
  C
A mother's dream is broken 
         G
And she's got nowhere to go 
 
Do we know just what we're doing 
Em
We're living in the past 
  C
The hopes and dreams we're hiding 
        G
Seem to hold on to the last  
  D                      C           G
A million conversations never said a word 
D                             C                  D
Countless delegations saying things that won't be heard  
 
(Chorus): 
Em  Bm   C            G
Oh oh    try to understand 
Am
The children of the future 
D
Gotta have a chance 
Em Bm    C                     G
Oh oh    it's time to make it right 
Am
There's gotta be a better way 
       C
There's gotta be a better way  
 
G C 

       G
You'll fight a war for fame 
Em
No-one takes the blame 
    C
She sells her soul for water 
     G
As they feed another plane 
 
We don't know what we're doing 
Em
The innocent won't last 
C
Praying that their conscience makes 
    G
Them recognize the past  
  D                      C          G
A million conversations never said a word 
D                            C
Countless delegations saying things that 
         D
Won't be heard   
 
Chorus 
 
G C  G C  G C  

G Em C G  

D                      C          G
A million conversations never said a word 
D                            C
Countless delegations saying things that 
         D
Won't be heard
