D                        G      Asus2   D
There comes a time when we heed a certain call
         G          Asus2            D
When the world must come together as one
          Bm7
There are people dying
         F#m7                   G                          Asus2
And it's time to lend a hand to life, The greatest gift of all
D              G          Asus2  D
We can't go on pretending day by day
         G        Asus2                  D
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
       Bm7                 F#m7
We are all a part of God's great big family
        G                               Asus2
And the truth, you know, love is all we need
Chorus:
           G    Asus2            D
We are the World,    we are the children
           G                        Asus2              D
We are the ones who make a brighter day so let's start giving
          Hm7                           F#m7
There's a choice we're making,   We're saving our own lives
     Em7                        G                D
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me
      D                                   G       Asus2   D
Well, send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares 
 G                   Asus2          D
And their lives will be stronger and free 
  Bm7                  F#m7
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread 
And so we all must lend a helping hand
