Song: Shards of Life
Album: Fading American Dream
Tabbed by: hyperliteBo

So when the sm[G]oke and the fire of anther attack s[C]lowly drift a[G]way

Can a[D]nyone seem to f[C]ind the appr[G]opriate words to say?

When the p[G]ain of loss and sudden change c[C]onjure family str[G]ife

Is there [D]any hope at [C]all for a ret[G]urn to normal life?

[G] [C] [G] [D] [C] [G]

Is there [G]solace in condolence or just de[C]eper pain dug [G]up?

The sad t[D]ruth is victim's f[C]amilies have no[G]thing to look forward to

And I'm [G]sick of picking up the Boston Globe and s[C]eeing painful [G]days of loss

Question[D] everything without ap[C]ology about the hor[G]ror and the cost


S[D]hards of life are left behind, no ea[C]sier, kinder p[G]ath to find

With a[D] loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it h[C]opes and plans crash [G]in defeat

And [G]hope is a foggy and distant memo[C]ry no hope for n[G]ormalcy

Cling[D] close to the legacy of l[C]oss and shards of l[G]ife, of life

[G] [C] [G] [D] [C] [G]

We see [G]a new war in the offing as we're c[C]hallenged by a new [G]plight

It's m[D]edia handle is t[C]errorism, it's the s[G]ame old ideological fight
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/street_dogs/shards_of_life_crd.html )
[G]The debates will rage on, are we ha[C]ndling this thing r[G]ight?

Can't [D]turn away rea[C]lity, can't p[G]ush it out of our mind's eye


S[D]hards of life are left behind, no ea[C]sier, kinder p[G]ath to find

With a[D] loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it h[C]opes and plans crash [G]in defeat

And [G]hope is a foggy and distant memo[C]ry no hope for n[G]ormalcy

Cling[D] close to the legacy of l[C]oss and shards of l[G]ife

And c[G]ivilian loss on the other side, is t[C]hat something that we t[G]ry to hide?

[D]What about the human cond[C]ition, I'm s[G]ick of all these justifications

[G]Where is the real outrage? My g[C]od, there's got to be a b[G]etter way

Is th[D]is how we solve p[C]roblems? I guess we h[G]aven't really evolved much


S[D]hards of life are left behind, no ea[C]sier, kinder p[G]ath to find

With a[D] loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it h[C]opes and plans crash [G]in defeat

And [G]hope is a foggy and distant memo[C]ry no hope for n[G]ormalcy

Cling[D] close to the legacy of l[C]oss and shards of l[G]ife.

And cling [D]close to the legacy of l[C]oss and shards of l[G]ife

Cling cl[D]ose to the legacy of lo[C]ss and shards of l[D]ife
