Another day in Nigeria the children beg for bread,
B C#m7 B C#m7 B Amaj7 B Amaj7
the crops have failed, the well ran dry when they lost the watershed.
B C#m7 B C#m7 B Amaj7 B Amaj7
A baby dies, its mother cries, the children gather 'round
B C#m7 B C#m7 B Amaj7
They're wondering what the day will bring, will they be the next one found?

A B A B G#m7 C#m7 G#m7 C#m7
Do you dare to gaze into their hollow eyes, hollow eyes?
A B A B G#m7 C#m7 G#m7 C#m7
Are they staring holes in you with their hollow eyes, hollow eyes,
B C#m7 B C#m7 B Amaj7 B Amaj7
hollow eyes?
B C#m7 B C#m7 B Amaj7
In the crowded sheds the children lay their heads to escape the Hatian heat.

The hunger pains drive them to the street wond'ring if today they'll eat.

B C#m7 B C#m7 B Amaj7 B Amaj7
Some find food in the refuse heap, others find disease,
B C#m7 B C#m7 B Amaj7 B Amaj7
some find it harder just to live when they can die with ease.

These are the chord forms I use for this song. Just so you know, each
vertical line is a string, the number to the left is top fret of the chart,
the o's are where your fingers are, the ---'s represent barres, the x's at
the top mean don't play this string, and finally, each horizontal line
is a fret. i.e. For a B, you have a one finger barre at the second fret,
and the D, G & B strings depressed at the fourth fret.
