5 Thoughts

Chris, along with one or two others,  was the ‘social conscience’ of the group.

She kept us up to date on human rights and injustices around the globe; also conservation and environmental issues.

Her concerns were reflected in her songs.

Am…….

Am                                   Dm

When I’m alone, and my thoughts are milling round,

                 G                   E                              Am

I think of him, and the love my friends have found.

                                      Dm

I think of peace and of wars that never end,

                    G                        E                   Am

And of the suffering and the pain I long to end.

                                  F

Chorus:- How will I know

When he’s right here beside me

              G                                 E                             Am

And his love is shining out and pouring through my soul?

                  F                                                                 G

How will I feel, when I can look into the faces of my loved ones

                          E                   Am

And knowingly say-that he is real?

Am                                          Dm

I think of prisons, the lonely faces that look out

            G                   E                           Am

Into a world, full of hatred , greed and doubt.

                                                Dm

I see the children, and their starving eyes that gaze

                G                            E              Am

Back into mine, where they mirror-only pain.

(Chorus:)
