[Intro]
G C G
G C G
[Verse]
C G
We marched fifty years and five hundred miles
C G
From a Mississippi bridge to the Ferguson trial
C G
Stepping over bodies of other mothers’ sons
C G
Singing how someday we shall overcome
[Chorus]
G
And my heart aches
C G
My heart aches
[Verse]
C G
We marched fifty years and so many miles
C G
With folded hands and complacent smiles
C G
Condemned a generation to circumstance
C G
And all we were saying was ‘give peace a chance’
[Chorus]
G
And my heart aches
C G
My heart aches
[Verse]
C G
We marched fifty years and countless miles
C G
Ignoring the signs with our own denials
C G
Waiting for some others to take a stand
C G
And hammer out justice all over this land
[Chorus]
G
And my heart aches
C G
My heart aches
[Verse]
C G
For the children locked in cages
C G
Far away where no one sees
C G
For the helpless and the hopeless
Em C
For the homeless refugees
