Oh, Misses Shepard I heard about your son
C Cadd9 Csus4 C
He was filled with glory until hate's gun
Am Em
And he cried at that fence
F C
Like a scarecrow, afraid
Am Em
As those boys beat him dry
F G C
With the hands of hate
C G6add11 Am Em F C G

And Lawrence King never saw 9th grade
C Cadd9 Csus4 C
Before that bullet was forced into his brain
Am Em
By a bully, a madman
F C
A classmate of rage
Am Em
Just at 15, young Larry
F G
Was sent to his grave
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
And we join together in the arms of faith
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
Can we join together and learn not to hate?
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
And we join together in the arms of faith
C G6add11 Am Em F G C
Can we join together and be one human race

Our friend Tyler was forced off of a bridge
C Cadd9 Csus4 C
After his roommates filmed and outed him
Am Em
Making love to another
F C
The same sex as him
Am Em
And the only sin that God saw
F G C
Was the roommates killing him
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
C G6add11 Am Em F C G

Poor old Jamey always smiled and thrived
C Cadd9 Csus4 C
But as the slurs went on, he couldn’t stay alive
Am Em
And he took his own life
F C
On a cold september night
Am Em
And the bullies admitted
F G
That they wanted him to die
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
And we join together in the arms of faith
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
Can we join together and learn not to hate?
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
And we join together in the arms of faith
C G6add11 Am Em F G C
Can we join together and be one human race
Am Em F C
Did you think about how his mama would cry?
Am Em F
When she was forced with goodbye?
Am Em F C
Did you think about his papa when he died?
Am Em F G
How will they survive?
C G6add11 Am Em F C G
And we join together in the arms of faith
