[Verse 1]
C Am
No hands to warm
C Am C
No bedtime story, no lullaby
Am G
No little steps in the middle of the night
C Am
And the nation's numb
C Am C
Is this what our forefathers had in mind
Am G
What is happening in Washington
[Chorus]
Em Am
'Cause it's not enough
G
Your thoughts and prayers
C
You send your love
Am
You say you care
F G
But you are not my baby
[Verse 2]
C Am
Oh but my heart has died
C Am
Standing alone in an empty room
C Am G
Except for my child but she's not really there
C Am
And all the people have gone
C Am C
And I want to pick her up and take her home
Am G
I can't bear to leave her here
[Chorus]
Em Am
It's not enough
G
Your thoughts and prayers
C
You send your love
Am
You say you care
F G
But you are not my baby
[Interlude]

F G Am
Oh bless the child, oh rest their souls
Em F
I bet those lawmakers don't know
G
This feeling that...
[Chorus]
D
It's not enough
G
Your thoughts and prayers
C
You send your love
Am
You say you care
F G
But you are not my baby
C Am
Can you do something
F G
So that there's not more gone babies
