C#m
Dateline early Sunday morning
E
Shots ring out without a warning
B                              F#
No one seems to even blink in this town

Two dead and a baby missing
Sirens screaming in the distance
A mother pleading bring my baby home now

        C#m
For the pink slip of an SUV
   B
A night cut down with tragedy
     F#                          A
His defence another generation breakdown

G#5
Yeah, Yeah

Chorus:
C#m          B
What is the distance
F#m              A
between a bullet and a gun
E            B
God are you listening
F#m               A
Or have you just given up

Corporate countries go to war
Behind the lies they're fighting for
And black gold from an old king's soul won his round

How can someone take a life
In the name of god and say it's right
How does money lead to greed
When there's still hungry mouths to feed

Chorus

E           B
We need forgiveness
F#m            A
We all need a lot of love.

A             B
We need some hope
           C#m
We need it now
          B/D#
A little faith
             A
man help me out
                E/G#
I'll learn to pray
                   B
But it's too late now

Yeah, Yeah

Chorus:
What is the distance
between a bullet and a gun
God are you listening
Or have you just given up

What is the distance
between a bullet and a gun
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love.

A lot of love.
