lyrics

Capo 6

[C]
[F] The sky was [G] lit up in the [C] morning
[F] I was on my [G] way into [C] town
[F] I knew that there [G] wasn’t any [C] warning
When those [G] towers came [F] falling [C] down

[F] I was only [G] thinkin’ of my[C]self that day
[F] I couldn’t get your [G] cheatin’ off my [C] mind
[F] I thought you’d done me [G] wrong in a [C] bad way
But [G] I forgot it all [F] when those planes caught us [C] blind

[Em] We all re[F]member that [C] day
When they [Em] tried to wipe our [F] spirit a[C]way
We were [G] taken by sur[F]prise lets hope we’ve [C] opened up our [Em] eyes
[G] We still re[F]member that [C] day

[F] I called you as [G] soon as the line [C] opened
You were [F] far from the [G] rubble and the [C] dust
Still to[F]day we count our [G] blessings in the [C] end
You [G] crossed the river you were [F] saved by your [C] lust

Chorus

[G7] Memories of that [Em] day should [F] bring us to[C]gether
Don’t [G] let things di[Em]vided us from our [F] sisters and our [C] brothers
Lets [Em] remember that [F] day
We’ll [Em] remember that [F] day for[C]ever

Bridge Break

[F] We’ve listened to the [G] tales from ground [C] zero
Of [F] the jumpers and [G] Genelle’s crazy [C] story
[F] And the men that faced the [G] flames like [C] heros
And how we’ll [G] rise again from the [F] ashes back to [C] glory

Chorus
