Louder than Words Why do we play with fire? Why do we run our finger through the flame? Why do we leave our hand on the stove Although we know we’re in for some pain? Oh,why do we refuse to hang a light? When the streets are dangerous? Why does it take an accident Before the truth gets through to us? Chorus: Cages or wings? Which do you prefer Ask the birds… Fear or love ,baby? Don’t say the answer Actions speak louder than words… Why should we try to be our best? When we can just get by and still gain? Why do we nod our heads Although we know The boss is wrong as rain? Why should we blaze a trail When the well-worn path seems safe And so inviting? How as we travel can we see the dismay and keep from fighting? Repeat Chorus Louder than words, louder than words What does it takes? To wake-up a generation? How can you make someone take off and fly? If we don’t wake up and shake up the nation We’ll eat the dust of the world Wond’ring why, Repeat chorus …actions speak louder than,louder than,Louder than louder than,louder than,louder than Repeat Chorus Louder than, louder than words…louder than, louder than… Actions speak louder than words
Thank you so much!
While certainly not my favorite composition cover of Louder than Words, there are some pretty cool harmonies here
Louder than Words
Why do we play with fire?
Why do we run our finger through the flame?
Why do we leave our hand on the stove
Although we know we’re in for some pain?
Oh,why do we refuse to hang a light?
When the streets are dangerous?
Why does it take an accident
Before the truth gets through to us?
Chorus:
Cages or wings? Which do you prefer
Ask the birds…
Fear or love ,baby? Don’t say the answer
Actions speak louder than words…
Why should we try to be our best?
When we can just get by and still gain?
Why do we nod our heads
Although we know
The boss is wrong as rain?
Why should we blaze a trail
When the well-worn path seems safe
And so inviting?
How as we travel can we see the dismay and keep from fighting?
Repeat Chorus
Louder than words, louder than words
What does it takes?
To wake-up a generation?
How can you make someone take off and fly?
If we don’t wake up and shake up the nation
We’ll eat the dust of the world
Wond’ring why,
Repeat chorus
…actions speak louder than,louder than,Louder than louder than,louder than,louder than
Repeat Chorus
Louder than, louder than words…louder than, louder than… Actions speak louder than words
