[Intro]
Gadd9 Cadd9 Gadd9 Cadd9
 
[Verse 1]
   G                  Em
In my defence what is there to say
           C                     D
All the mistakes we made must be faced today
         Gadd9              Em7
It's not easy now knowing where to start
          Cadd9                  D
While the world we love tears itself apart
 
[Chorus]
            G      D/F#   Em      Em7/D
I'm just a singer with a song
          Cadd9              D
How can I try to right the wrong
               G     B/F#    Em     G7/D
For just a singer with a melody
                  C   C/D
I'm caught in between
                 Gadd9 Cadd9 Gadd9 Cadd9
With a fading dream
 
[Verse 2]
    G                 Em
In my defence what is there to say
       C                      D
We destroy the love - it's our way
 Gadd9                          Em7
We never listen enough never face the truth
     Cadd9
Then like a passing song
        D
Love is here and then it's gone
 
[Chorus]
            G      D/F#   Em      Em7/D
I'm just a singer with a song
          Cadd9              D
How can I try to right the wrong
               G     B/F#    Em     G7/D
For just a singer with a melody
               C      Cm
I'm caught in between
                D
With a fading dream

D E/D A/C# Am/C B E
 
Em Eb+ G/D A/C#

D/E E G/D G/C G/B
 
[Chorus]
            G     B7/F#   Em  G7/D
I'm just a singer with a song
           C                 D
How can I try to right the wrong
            G      D/F#   Em    G/D
For just a singer with a melody
           Cadd9      C/D
I'm caught in between
                G
With a fading dream
            Cadd9               Gadd9
Caught in between with a fading dream
            C    Cm                 Gadd9
Caught in between     with a fading dream
 
Gadd9 Gadd8
 
[Outro]
Am
  Oh what on earth
D/C    Bm7
  Oh what on earth
E7/G#     Am   C/D          Gadd9
How do I try, do we live or die
Dadd9/F#      C/E
  Oh help me God

i think refren is better with G B7 Em :)

You have to be a really good tenor to deliver this song in the original key =) The chords seem all correct ^^
