[Intro]
F       G  Em          G
[Verse]
EmWhen your faith lights the canonG  
FWhen your pride is pulling triggersG  
EmAnd nobody is left standingG  
FTell me where's the God in thatG  
EmYou can say the war is overG  
FTry and sell that to a motherG  
EmSent away her heart and got back a stoneG  
FNow it's quieter than she's ever knownG  
EmTakes one second to breathe in and outG  
FOne decision to believe or doubtG  
EmOne heart beating echoes in a crowdG  
FCryin' for change and only tears get outG  
[Chorus]
AmMama's cryin' bullets in the Gsky
FRaining, raining tears fall on each side
AmFight for love don't love the figGht
FMama's cryin' bullets in the sEmkyG  F  G  
[Verse]
EmNow the fewer and the braverG  
FHope and pray their faith won't waiverG  
EmThen fate taps them on the shoulderG  
FA blink of an eyeG  
EmThe path of fear we're being lGed to tFread
Is paved with wasted lifeG  
[Chorus]
AmMama's cryin' bullets in the Gsky
FRaining, raining tears fall on each side
AmFight for love don't love the figGht
FMama's cryin' bullets in the sAmky
