On that September day?

Rising up against that blue sky

Or did you just sit down and cry?

Verse
Where were you when the world stopped turning
On that September day?
Teaching a class full of innocent children
Or driving down some cold interstate?
Did you feel guilty cause you’re a survivor
In a crowded room do you feel alone?
Did you call up your mother
And tell you love her,
Or did you dust off that Bible at home?
Did you open you eyes and hope it never happened
Close your eyes and not go to sleep?
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages
And speak to some stranger on the street?
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow
Go out and buy you a gun
Did you turn off that violent old movie you’re watching
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns?
Bridge (sorta)
FA DO
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some strangers
FA
Stand inline to give your own blood?
FA
Did you just stay home
DO
And cling tight to your family,
LAm FA
Thank God you have somebody to love.
Chorus
SOL FA
And the greatest is Love
SOL FA
And the greatest is Love
SOL DO
And the greatest is love
