James Blunt - No Bravery

From "Back To Bedlam" (2004)
(James Blunt, S. Skarbek)

INTRO:   [Am]   [E]   [G]   [D]  (x2)

[Am] There are children standing here
[E]  Arms outstretched into the sky
[G]  Tears drying on their face
[D]  He has been here
[Am] Brothers lie in shallow graves
[E]  Fathers lost without a trace
[G]  A nation blind to their disgrace
[D]  Since he's been here

CHORUS:
[Am] And I see no brave[E]ry
No brave[G]ry
In your [D]eyes anymore
Only sadness
[Am]  And I see no brave[E]ry
No brave[G]ry
In your [D]eyes any more
Only sadness

Only sadness

[Am] Houses burnt beyond repair
[E]  The smell of death is in the air
[G]  A woman weeping in despair says
[D]  He has been here
[Am] Tracer lighting up the sky
[E]  It's another families turn, to die
[G]  A child afraid to even cry out says
[D]  He has been here

CHORUS

[Am] There are children standing here
[E]  Arms outstretched into the sky
[G]  But no one asks the question why
[D]  He has been here
[Am] Old men kneel to accept their fate
[E]  Wives and daughters cut and raped
[G]  A generation drenched in hate
[D]  Says he has been here

CHORUS

INTRO

CHORUS

Only sadness
