4Him - For Future Generations

      
 
 For Future Generations – 4Him
 
 Intro:
 
 C Dm G C 
     
 
 Verse 1:
 
 F              C/E               G    C   
 The signs are obvious; they are everywhere
 F           C/E                 C        D/F#  
 All that we hear about is the gloom and despair
      F              C/E                 G/B       C     
 Too many would be prophets sayin’ it’s the end of it all
        F               G                Am           G          
 ‘Cause mother earth cant take much more; the hammer’s gonna fall
 
 Verse 2:
 
 F         C/E                     G      C      
 So nature has its needs, that’s a lesson learned
 F        C/E                     C        D    
 But it appears to me there are greater concerns
       F               C/E                    G/B      C        
 ‘Cause we can save the planet, thinkin’ we will somehow survive
       Am             G            Am            G    
 But father time is calling us to save somebody’s life
 
 Chorus 1:
 ( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/0-9/4him/for_future_generations_crd.html )
           C                      
 So I won’t bend and I won’t break
        Am                  
 I won’t water down my faith
         F              G             C    G 
 I won’t compromise in a world of desperation
           C                  
 What has been I cannot change
           Dm7             
 But for tomorrow and today
        G                         C      Am G 
 I must be a light for future generations
 
 Verse 3:
 
 F           C/E              G          C   
 If we could find a way to preserve our faith
 F             C/E               C              D  
 So those who follow us see the price that was paid
        F               C/E                  G/B       C      
 Then maybe when they question what it’s gonna take to survive
        Am                   G           Am             G     
 They’ll find the strength to carry on in what we leave behind
 
 (Repeat Chorus 1)
 
 Bridge:
 
 F                                  
 Lookin’ in the eyes of the children
 C/E                              
 Knowing that tomorrow is at stake
 Am                           
 When the choice is up to them
                      G/B          
 Will they have the strength to say
 
 Chorus 2: (key change up a half step)
 
         C#                      
 We won’t bend and we won’t break
         A#m                  
 We won’t water down our faith
          F#             G#           C#    G# 
 We won’t compromise in a world of desperation
           C#                  
 What has been we cannot change
           D#m7            
 But for tomorrow and today
         G#              C#               
 We must be a light for future generations
 
 (Repeat Chorus 2)
