Where were you when the world stopped turning that Sept Day?
G C G
D
Out in the yard with your wife and children, working on some stage in LA
G C
Did you stand there in shock at site of that black smoke
G D
Rising against that blue sky
G C G
D
Did you shout out in anger fear for your neighbor, Or did you just sit down
and cry
æ
G C
Did you weep for the children who lost their dear love ones
G D
or pray for the ones who don't know
G C
G D
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rumble and sob for the
ones left below
G C
Did you burst out in pride for the Red White and Blue
G D
And the heroes who died just doing what they do
G C G
D
Did you look up to Heaven for some kind of answer or look to yourself for
what really matters
G C G
D
I'm just a singer of simple songs, I'm not a real political man
G C G
D
I watch CNN, but I not sure I can tell you, the difference in Iraq and Iran
G C
Buy I know Jesus, and I talk to God
G D
And I remember this from when I was young
G C G
D
Faith hope and Love are some good things he gave us, and the greatest is
Love
G C G
D
Where were you when the world stopped turning that Sept Day
G C G
D
Teaching a class full of innocent children, Or driving down some cold
interstate
G C G
D
Did you feel guilty cuz you're a survivor, In a crowded room did you feel
alone
G C
Did you call up your mother and tell her you love her
G D
Did you dust off that bible at home
G C G
D
Did you open your eyes hope it never happened and close your eyes and not go
to sleep
G C G
D
Did you notice the sunset, first time in ages and speak to some strangers on
the street
G C G
D
Did you lie down at night and think of tomorrow and go out and buy you a gun
G C G
D
Did you turn off that violent old movie your watching and turn on I Love
Lucy reruns
G C G
D
Did you go to a church and hold with some strangers, Stand in line and give
your own blood
G C G
D
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family, Thank God you had
somebody to love
Chorus X 2
G C
But I know Jesus, and I talk to God
G D
And I remember this from when I was young
G C G

Faith Hope and Love are some good things he gave us, and the greatest is
Love
G C G D
, and the greatest is Love , , and the greatest is Love
