Intro-

C C   Am   F F   G
C C   Am   Am Am   C


C             Am
Me and all my friends

      F           G 
We're all misunderstood 

     C                Am  
They say we stand for nothing and 

           Am          C 
There's no way we ever could


           C                 Am  
Now we see everything that's going wrong

         F                   G    
With the world and those who lead it

        C                  Am 
We just feel like we don't have the means

   Am             C 
To rise above and beat it 

           C  C    Am 
So we keep waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change

           C  C    Am  
We keep on waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change 

     C  C             Am
It's hard to beat the system

           F   F          G 
When we're standing at a distance

           C  C    Am 
So we keep waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change 

    C             Am
Now if we had the power

             F                   G 
To bring our neighbors home from war

                C              Am 
They would have never missed a Christmas

        Am               C 
No more ribbons on their door

             C          Am 
And when you trust your television

         F               G 
What you get is what you got

                C            Am
Cause when they own the information, oh

         Am               C 
They can bend it all they want 

        C  C    Am
That's why we're waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change 

           C  C    Am 
We keep on waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change 

C                      Am
It's not that we don't care,

        F                         G          
We just know that the fight ain't fair 

              C  C    Am 
So we keep on waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change 

  
Bridge-
        
C C   Am   F F   G
C C   Am   Am Am   C

C C   Am   F F   G
C C   Am   Am Am   C


                C  C    Am                  
And we're still waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change

           C  C    Am        
We keep on waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change

    C C         Am     
One day our generation

         F  F     G 
Is gonna rule the population

              C  C    Am 
So we keep on waiting 

               Am Am    C  
Waiting on the world to change 


           C  C    Am
We keep on waiting 

               Am Am    C
Waiting on the world to change
