(intro)  D5 

D5                     G5
I woke up today, I was crying,
D5        G5
Lost in a lost world,
D5                      G5
Cos' so many people are dying,
D5        G5
Lost in a lost world.

D5                         D5
Some of them are living an illusion,
D5                               Bb5
Bounded by the darkness of their minds,
G5                                 A5
In their eyes, it's nation against nation against nation,
      D5            G5
With racial pride, sad hearts they hide
A5               D5
Thinking only of themselves, they shun
          G5
The light. They think they're right
A5                   D5
Living in their empty shells.

G5     C5                          F5
Oh...  can you see their world is crashing (...so many people...)
E5
Crashing down around their feet
A5
And angry people in the street,
D5
Are telling them they've had their fill
A5
Of politics that wound and kill
G5    C5               F5
Grow, the seeds of evolution
E5
Revolution never won
A5
It's just another form of gun
D5
To do again what they have done
G5                     A5       Bb5
With all our brothers' youngest sons.

       D5  G5  (3x)

D5                                D5
Everywhere you go you'll see them searching
D5                            Bb5
Everywhere you turn you'll feel the pain
G5                          A5
Everyone is looking for the answer
D5                G5
We'll look again, come on my friend
A5                     D5
Love will find them in the end
D5                      G5
Come on my friend we've got to bend
A5                     D5
On our knees and say a prayer.

G5   C5                         F5
Oh   can you feel the world is pining
E5
Pining for someone who really cares,
A5
Enough to share his love,
D5
With all of us. So we can be
A5
An ever loving family.
G5  C5                            F5
Ahh Have you forgotten we're all children
E5
Children from a family tree
A5
That's longer than a centipede
D5
And started long ago when you
    G5          A5   Bb5
And I were only love-

(outro) D5 

D5                     G5
I woke up today, I was crying,
D5        G5
Lost in a lost world,
D5                      G5
Cos' so many people are dying,
D5        G5
Lost in a lost world
