Thank you everybody.
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ I just wanted to say a few words before we [Bm] start.
This was to be a very joyous occasion tonight.
[E] _
Because of the horrific events of today, it simply can't be a joyous occasion.
We have three choices.
One is the show must go on, the other is not to do anything at all.
_ The band and I came up with a compromise.
We'd like to have one number on the webcast for the rest of the world to see
and then shut it off as a token of respect to those who've lost their lives
and those who've lost loved ones in this terrible event.
_ And _ then it's up to you how you feel.
I'd like a minute's silence after that song.
No any applause, I just want us to stand and think about what's happened today. _ _
It's difficult for all of us.
I'm angry, I'm confused, I'm frightened.
_ I _ don't really want to give this meaningless act of violence _ any credence.
It's totally and utterly pointless. _ _ _
We'll sing this song for those people who've lost their lives.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ In blood we flow, _ in _ _ flesh and steel our own.
_ _ _ _ Drying in the colour of _ _ the evening sun.
_ _ _ _ _ Tomorrow's rain _ _ _ _ _ washes tears away, _ _ _ _ _ soothing our minds.
_ _ _ Always still. _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] Flooding [Em] on _ _ the rainfall. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ Flooding on the rainfall. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Once a time like this was,
trapped [A] as your [Em] life turns a mirror.
[Bm] Nothing [Em] comes from [B] violence,
[D] but [Em] nothing ever comes. _
A lost boy made me an angry [A] son.
[Em] _ _
[Bm] To forget [Em] how [B] fragile we [F#] [Em] are. _ _
[C] _ Blood and [Em] blundering [Bm] [B] will flow,
[Em] like tears from a stone. _ _ _ _
[C] Blood and _ [Em] [Bm] blundering [Em] will [Bm] see,
[Em] how fragile we are.
How [F#] fragile [Em] we are.

[Cm] blood [B] _ _ [Em] we flow, in flesh and steel [Em] our own.
_ Drying in the colour [B] of [D] the evening [Em] sun.
_ Tomorrow's rain washes stains away,
[Bm] soothing [Em] our minds.
[B] Always [Em] still.
_ _ [C] Blood and [Em] blundering [B] will flow,
[Em] like tears from a stone.
_ _ _ _ _ [C] Blood and [Em] blundering [B] will see,
[E] how fragile we [D] are.
[C#] How fragile we are.
[C] We will _ _ flow.
