Verso:
Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me
Let's pretend we're just two people
and you're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions
if we can speak honestly

C      Bm9  Am                        G                      D4/F#
What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
C     Bm9  Am               G                       D4/F#
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
C     Bm9   Am                       Em7      D4/F#
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Em7        Cadd9
Are you proud?

            G              D4/F#              Am  C9
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
            G              D4/F#         Am      C9
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
            G              D4/F#      Am  C9
How do you walk with your head held high?
             Em7          C9
Can you even look me in the eye

And tell me why

Dear Mr. President Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy? Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say? No child is left behind.
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell

C      Bm9  Am                        G                     D4/F#

And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
C         Bm9   Am               G           D4/F#
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
             Em7                         C9
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine!

How do you sleep at night?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President,
you'd never take a walk with me

would you?
