Verse 
Dm                      C     Bb                  Dm 
  Make the sadness go away    Come back another day 
                         C                 Bb            Dm  
For years I've tried to teach   But their eyes are empty 
                      C     Bb               Dm 
Empty, too, I have become   For them I must die 
                    C           Bb                    Dm  
A sad and troubled race   An ungrateful troubled place 

 
Dm                          C 
I see the sadness in their eyes 
                      Dm 
Melancholy in their cries 
                         C 
Devoid of all the passion 
                         Dm 
The human spirit cannot die 
                          C 
Look at the pain around me 
                      Dm 
This is what I cry for 
                          C 
Look at the pain around me 
                         Dm _ 
This is what I'll die for

Dm                    C   Bb                  Dm 
Make the sadness go away  Come back another day 
                          C          Bb              Dm 
The things I've said and done  Don't matter to anyone 
                     C             Bb                    Dm 
But still,   you   push me to see  Something I can never be 
                          C    Bb                   Dm 
Why am I their shattered king  I don't mean anything
