Why Can't We Lyrics & Chords

By The Isaacs

Verse 1

(Bm)He lies awake there all alone most (D)every (G)night

(D)Looking back on all of his mistakes

(Bm)Wishing through the (A)tears that he could (G)just go back

(D)'Cause there's a lot of things he'd like to (A)change

(C)He just can't for(G)give himself (D)and forget

(Em)Even though (Bm)God already (A)did



Chorus

(D)If He can love someone and find the (A)good within

In spite of what (D)they've (Bm)done, no (A)matter where they've (G)been

If (D)He can let it go and set the (A)debtor free

If He can keep for(D)giv(Bm)ing (A)you and (G)me

Why (D)can't we



Verse 2

There've been times I've been so hurt by someone else

I didn't wanna give a second chance

I let all the bitterness take control

And took grace into my own hands

But even Jesus said, "Whoever's done no wrong

Let him throw the first stone"



Chorus

If He can love someone and find the good within

In spite of what they've done, no matter where they've been

If He can let it go and set the debtor free

If He can keep forgiving you and me

Why can't we



He was hated and rejected, betrayed by those He trusted

Even hanging on the cross, He said, "Father, please forgive them"
