Where Were You 8(Keyboard chords)

	        verse 1 
A 
Where were you when the world stopped turning 
E               A 
That September day 
A 
Out in the yard with your wife and children 
E                         A 
Working on some stage in L.A. 
             D 
Did you stand there in shock 
            A 
At the sight of that black smoke 
D                        A 
Rising against that blue sky 
               D               A 
Did you shout out in anger in fear for your neighbor 
    F#m                       D        E 
Or did you just sit down and cry 

         A 
Did you weep for the children that lost their dear loved ones 
E                               A 
Pray for the ones who don't know 
A 
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble 
     E                    A 
And sob for the ones left below 
        D                          A 
Did you burst out in pride for the red, white & blue 
    D                                    A 
The heroes who died just doing what they do 
        D                      A 
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer 
        F#m               D 
And look at yourself for what really matters 

Chorus 
D                   A 
I'm just a singer of simple songs, 
          D              A 
I'm not a real political man 

         D             A 
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you 
    F#m                    D 
The difference in Iraq and Iran 
    D               A 
But I know Jesus and I talk to God 
           D                        A 
And I remember this from when I was young 
D                            A                         E 
Faith, hope and love are some good things He gave us 
                     D 
And the greatest is love. 

verse 2 
A 
Where were you when the world stopped turning 
   E           A 
That September day 
A 
Teaching a class full of innocent children 
   E                       A 
Driving down some cold interstate 
    D                 A 
Did you feel guilty because you're a survivor 
      D                         A 
In a crowded room did you feel alone 
        D                        A 
Did you call up your mother and tell her you love her 
              F#m              D         E 
Did you dust off that Bible at home 

        A 
Did you open your eyes and hope it never happened 
E                             A 
Close your eyes and not go to sleep 
         A 
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages 
   E                           A 
Speak to some stranger on the street 
          D                     A 
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow 
   D                 A 
Go out and buy you a gun 
         D                         A 
Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watching 

         F#m               D 
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns 

    D                           A 
Did you go to a Church and hold hands with some stranger 
D                               A 
Stand in line and give your own blood 
     D                             A 
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family 
      F#m                      D 
Thank God you had somebody to love 

(Repeat Chorus twice) 
    D                 A 
I'm just a singer of simple songs, 
          D              A 
I'm not a real political man 
        D           A 
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you 
      F#m                   D 
The difference in Iraq and Iran 
    D                A 
But I know Jesus and I talk to God 
          D                           A 
And I remember this from when I was young 

D                            A                          E 
Faith, hope and love are some good things He gave us 
                     D 
And the greatest is love. 

D      E              A      E 
The greatest is love 
D       E              A     E 
The greatest is love 
      A 
Where were you when the world stopped turning 
   E                     A 
That September           day
