Desert Rose Band Darkness On The Playground by Chris Hillman
Steve Hill
D
Asus A D Dsus D
There's trouble on the streets in this land of the free
Asus A D Dsus D
Freedom has a price and you know it don't come cheap
Bm A
When our children are tempted left all alone
G E
Seeking the values they can't find at home
G A D Dsus D
There's darkness on the playground where did right go wrong
Asus A D Dsus D
It's nobodys fault but it's here just the same
Asus A D Dsus D
Some kind of disease and no one takes the blame
Bm A
Oh you can say to me what's the use
G E
Play too hard you know you'll light the fire
G A D Dsus D
There's darkness on the playground will we win or will we lose
G D G G/F# A
Darkness taking all of your dreams
Em G A
Living in shadows is not what it seems
G D G G/F# A
Hold on hold me you don't have to die
Em G A D Dsus D
Arms out reaching for a new life
Asus A D Dsus D
To turn away is easy to follow only fools
Asus A D Dsus D
And the way back in is hard it's a brand new set of rules
Bm A
I can't show you any more lies
G E
I only hope that you realize
G A D
There's darkness on the playground and nothing left to hide
