[Primeira Parte]

Em                C
How do we save a life
G              Am
Pointing fingers?
Em                  C
How can we end the fight
D     Am
This way?
 Em                                   C
When blame is the truth we're preaching?
      G                       Am
And lies are what we're believing?
Em            C
No one ever wins
G                               Am

One by one we could rewrite the headlines
  Am             Bm
Standing side by side
              Em
One by one, love is building an empire
               D
One by one, reaching out to our enemies
              C
One by one we will make it to the finish line
Am                Bm
Standing side by side
    Em
Ceasefire

Em                 C
I will be the first to say
G             Am
I'm far from perfect
      Em                           C
But grace was made for those who don't
G      Am
Deserve it
 Em               C
So easy to cast the first stone
G                    Am
It's harder to search your own soul
Em           C
No one ever wins
G                               Am
When the goal is to settle the score
