[Intro]
F C C G (x2)
[Verse 1]
F C
They should have shut down all the streets
G Em
Presidents and kings should have been there
F
With not a single empty seat
Em A F#m Bm
All the schools closed, and the roads we drove down all lined
G A F#m Bm
Lined with people cap in hand and crying
G A F
That went on for miles and miles and miles and miles
[Bridge 1]

They should have shut down all the streets
G Em
All the papers plastered with tributes
F
We should have asked for privacy
Em A F#m Bm
Though we understand it that some want to share their pain
G A F#m Bm
We would ask to grieve this in our quiet way
G A F
And they should have asked again and again and again

That a second grade class had made in their school that day
G A F#m Bm
Because the teacher had to give in some small way
G A F
And there weren't that many ways left for her to say it
