INtro - (walk down)
C - C/B - Am - G - D
 
(verse 1)
G D/F#A mother riding on a city bus
Em7 DKids are yelling kicking up a fuss
Cadd9Everybody’s staring
C/B DNot knowing what she's going through
G D/F# Somebody said don't you even care
Em7 DAnd Do you let them Do that everywhere
Cadd9 C/B DShe slowly turned around, looked up and stared.
 
 
(pre-cho)
Em7 Cadd9She said, "Please forgive them They've been up all night"
Em7 Cadd9Their father struggled But he finally lost his fight
Em7 Cadd9He went to heaven In the middle of the night
Cadd9 C/B Am G DSo please for--give my children
 
They don’t understand."
 
 
(chorus)
G D/F#Everybody's busy with their own situation
Em7 DEverybody's lost in their own little world
Cadd9 C/B DBottled up, hurried up, trying to make a dream come true
 
They don't understand
G D/F#Everybody's livin' like there ain't no tomorrow
Em7 DMaybe we should stop and take a little time
Cadd9 C/B DCause you never really know what your neighbor’s going through
 
They don't understand.
 
 
(verse 2)
A man drivin on the interstate,
slowin down traffic makin everybody late,
Everybody's starin' not knowin what he's goin through,
Sombody honked from the passin' lane,
yelled out the window ain't got all day,
The old man looked around and he caught his eye,
 
 
(pre- cho)
 
HE said please forgive me,
you know it's been a real long life,
My wife has passed away and my kids don't have the time,
And I've been there ? long and it's gettin' hard to drive,
So please forgive me children,
They don't understand.
 
 
(chorus)
G D/F#Everybody's busy with their own situation
Em7 DEverybody's lost in their own little world
Cadd9 C/B DBottled up, hurried up, trying to make a dream come true
 
They don't understand
G D/F#Everybody's livin' like there ain't no tomorrow
Em7 DMaybe we should stop and take a little time
Cadd9 C/B DCause you never really know what your neighbor’s going through
 
They don't understand.
 
 
(verse 3)
G D/F#A man hangin on a wooden cross,
Em7 DGiven everything to save the lost,
Cadd9 C/B DEverybody's starin not knowin what he's goin through,
G D/F#Somebody said you don't have a prayer,
Em7 DIf you're a king come on down from there,
Cadd9 C/B DThe man just turned his head and looked up and stared,
 
 
(pre-cho)
Em7 Cadd9He said please forgive them, For they have not seen the light,
Em7 Cadd9They'll come to know me when I come back to life,
Em7 Cadd9The road to heaven to make everything alright,
Cadd9 C/B Am G DSo please for--give your children,
 
They don't understand
 
 
(chorus)
G D/F#Everybody's busy with their own situation
Em7 DEverybody's lost in their own little world
Cadd9 C/B DBottled up, hurried up, trying to make a dream come true
