James Blunt - No Bravery

nothing new from the older versions , just fixing the lines abit . .
the chords are simply played in a strum bass , 2 , 1 and you can enter some 3 and 4 between
to “fill it up”
in the G i prefer open E string and D not playing it at all . .

intro : | Am | E | G | D | x2

Am E
there are children standing here ,
G
arms outstretched into the sky ,
D
tears drying on their face .
he has been here .
Am E
brothers lie in shallow graves .
G
fathers lost without a trace .
D
a nation blind to their disgrace ,
since he’s been here .

Am E
and i see no bravery ,
G
no bravery ,
D
in your eyes anymore , only sadness . ( x2 )
F D
only sadness ( x2 )

| Am | E | G | D |
houses burnt beyond repair .
the smell of death is in the air .
a woman weeping in despair says ,
he has been here .
tracer lighting up the sky .
it’s another families turn , to die .
a child afraid to even cry out says ,
he has been here .

[ and i see no bravery , ] ( x2 )

| Am | E | G | D |
there are children standing here ,
arms outstretched into the sky ,
but no one asks the question why ,
he has been here .
old men kneel to accept their fate .
wives and daughters cut and raped .
a generation drenched in hate .
says he has been here .

[ and i see no bravery , ] ( x6 )

powerful song with such a simple rhythm ,
hope you’ll enjoy it as i do .
