G F#m Em C D G
Let me take you to the hurting ground
C Em D
Where all good men are trampled down
G C D Em
Just to settle a bet that could not be won
C D G
Between a prideful father and his son
F#m Em C D G
Well, you guard me now, for I can't see
C Em D
A reason for the suffering and this long misery
G C D Em
What if every living soul could be upright and strong
C D
Well, then I do imagine
G Em C G
There will be Sorrow
Em C G
Yeah there will be Sorrow
D Em C G Em D
And there will be Sorrow, no more
G F#m Em C D G
When all soldiers lay their weapons down
C Em D
Or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns
G C D Em
Or when the only true messiah rescues us from ourselves
C D
It's easy to imagine
G Em C G
There will be Sorrow
D Em C G
Yeah there will be Sorrow
D Em C G Em D
And there will be Sorrow, no more
