Intro: Am F
Verse I
[Am]I've kept it inside much too l[F]ong
there's no rel[Am]ief
[Am]carried it around just like a s[F]tone
too heavy for [Am]me
[F]I have paid the price for standing
[G]on the outside l[Em]ooking [Dm]in
[F]it's time to let the [G]healing b[Am]egin
verse II
[Am]a boy is strung out, he's going through h[F]ell
his mother w[Am]eeps
[Am]his spirit is broken and there's nothing l[F]eft
just a terrible n[Am]eed
[F]and the days are marked,[G] by the heaviness of the h[F]eart
[Em]it never m[Dm]ends, un[F]til the he[G]aling be[Am]gins
Chorus
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/joe_cocker/let_the_healing_begin_crd.html )
[C]and the tension pr[G]owls the street like an an[C]imal
[C]the people stay be[G]hind their locks and cha[C]ins
it's a sh[F]ame
[G]when so many are trying their [Am]best to l[Em]ive as [Dm]one
[F]and the smoke from the fires co[G]vers up the [Am]sun
verse III
[Am]a young girl is lying in the d[F]irt
her dreams ended t[Am]here
[Am]caught in the crossfire on somebody's t[F]urf
hatred in the [Am]air
[F]it' a voice that never si[G]ngs
[F]a winter without the sp[G]ring
it never [Em/Dm]ends
[F]it's time to let the [G]healing be[Am]gin[Em][Dm]
[F]it's time to let the [G]healing be[Am]gin
fade with Am F
