D x3 E
i must have dreamed a thousand dreams ,
G x3 A
been hunted by a million screams .
a x3 G
i can hear the marching feet ,
D x3 E
they’re moving into the street .
D x3 E
now did you read the news today ?
G x3 A
they say the danger’s gone away .
a x3 G
but i can see the fire’s still alight
D x3 E
burning into the night .
chorus :
D E G A
there’s too many men , too many people
D E
making too many problems ,
D E
and not much love to go around .
A G E
can’t you see , this is a land of confusion ?
E C D Bm E
so this is the world we live in ,
C D Bm E
and these are the hands we’re given .
C D Bm E
use them and let’s start trying
C D Bm A
to make it a place worth living in .
D x3 E
oh superman , where are you now ,
G x3 A
when everything’s gone wrong somehow ?
a x3 G
the man of steel , men of power
D x3 E
are losing control by the hour .
chorus :
D E G A
this is the time , this is the place .
D E
so we look for the future .
D E
but there’s not much love to go around .
A G E
tell me why this is a land of confusion ?
E C D Bm E
so this is the world we live in ,
C D Bm E
and these are the hands we’re given .
C D Bm E
use them and let’s start trying
C D Bm A
to make it a place worth living in .
i remember long ago when the sun was shining ,
the stars were bright all through the night ,
and the sound of your laughter
as i held you tight , so long ago .
C D C D C D C D
D x3 E
i won’t be coming home tonight .
G x3 A
my generation will put it right .
a x3 G
we’re not just making promises
D x3 E
that we know we’ll never keep .
D E G A
too many men , too many people
D E
making too many problems ,

and not much love to go around .

to make it a place worth fighting for .
C D Bm E

C D Bm E
and these are the names we’re given .

C D Bm E
just where our lives are going to
