Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me
Let's pretend we're just two people
and you're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions
if we can speak honestly
[Pre-Chorus]
C Am/C Am G G2
What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
C Am/C Am G G2
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
C Am/C Am Em7 G2
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Cadd9
Are you proud?
[Chorus]
G G2 Am Am/C C
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
G G2 Am Am/C C
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
G G2 Am Am/C C
How do you walk with your head held high?
Em7 G2 Cadd9 (hold)
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why
[Interlude]

Dear Mr. President Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy? Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say? No child is left behind.
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell
[Pre-Chorus]
C Am/C Am G G2
What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
C Am/C Am G G2
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
C Am/C Am G G2
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
Em7 Am
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine!
[Chorus]
G G2 Am Am/C C
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
G G2 Am Am/C C
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
G G2 Am Am/C C
How do you walk with your head held high?
Em7 G2 Cadd9
Can you even look me in the eye
[Bridge]
Em7 G/Em (step-up) G
Let me tell you bout hard work
Am Am/C C
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Em7 G/Em (step-up) G
Let me tell you bout hard work
Am Am/C C
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Em7 G/Em (step-up) G
Let me tell you bout hard work

would you?
Do your part – QUIT EATING FISH!!!
