[Verse]
C Csus4
Where were you when the world stopped turning,
G C
On that September day?
C Csus4
Were you in the Yard with your wife and children,
G C
Or working on some stage in L.A?
F
Did you stand there in shock
C
At the sight of that black smoke
F C
Rising against that blue sky?
F
Did you shout out in anger
C
In fear for your neighbor,
Am F G
Or did you just sit down and cry?
C
Did you weep for the children, they lost their dear loved ones,
G C
And pray for the ones who don't know?
C
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble
G C
And sob for the ones left below?
F
Did you burst out with pride
C
For the Red, White, and Blue
F
And the heroes who died
C
just doing what they do?
F C
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer,
Am F G
And look at your self and what really matters?
[Chorus]
F C
I'm just a singer of simple songs I'm not a
F C
Real political man
F C
I watch CNN, But I'm not sure I can tell you
Am F
The difference in Iraq and Iran.
F C
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
F C
And I remember this from when I was young
F C
Faith, Hope and Love, are some good things he gave us
G F G
And the greatest is love.
[Verse 2]
C Csus4
Where were you when the world stopped turning
G C
On that September day?
C Csus4
Teaching a class full of innocent children
G C
Or driving down some cold interstate?
F C
Did you feel guilty cause you're a survivor
F C
In a crowded room did you feel alone?
F
Did you call up your mother
C
And tell you loved her?
Am F G
Did you dust off that Bible at home?
C
Did you open you eyes and hope it never happened
G C
Close your eyes and not go to sleep?
C
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages
G C
And speak to some stranger on the street?
F C
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow?
F C
Go out and buy you a gun?
F C
Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watching
Am F
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns?
[Bridge]
F C
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some strangers
F C
Stand inline and give your own blood?
F
Did you just stay home
C
And cling tight to your family,
Am F
Thank God you had somebody to love?
[Chorus] (x2)
F C
I'm just a singer of simple songs I'm not a
F C

Segundo Alan, quando perguntado sobre a composição desta música, ele disse: "Deus escreve as músicas, eu apenas seguro a caneta." Coisas poderosas.
