D         A       D
  For the love of man

  Who could understand

what goes on

  What is right and
         A
what is wrong

 the heavens sigh

 born to live

But not like you or I

A
  Let the angels
ring the bells
Bm            E

that calls to them

  For the love of man,
who will understand

  I know it's alright
A G A D
         A          D
Down the dusty road
G
  To the forest church.
       D
Let me wander there
              A
Let me wonder why
D        A    D
  On the ocean wave.

  To the billowing sky
A
  Let me wander there
       G      D
Let me wonder why
