D            Bm 
 Me and all my friends 

        G            D  
 We're all misunderstood 

       A               Bm   
 They say we stand for nothing 

                G               D 
 And there's no way we ever could 
                       
D                     Bm    
 Now we see everything that's going wrong 

           G                   D 
 With the world and those who lead it 

     A                 Bm 
 We feel like we don't have the means 

      G               D    
 To rise above and beat it 

  
 So we keep waiting 

Bm                G          D 
 Waiting on the world to change 

            A       Bm  
 We keep on waiting 

Bm                G              D 
 Waiting on the world to change 

       D                Em7 
 It's hard to beat the system 

           Bm7             Em7  
 When we're standing at a distance 

             A     Bm7      
 So we keep waiting 

Bm7              G              D 
 Waiting on the world to change  

D                Bm 
 If we had the power 

               G                   D 
 To bring our neighbors home from war 

                  A               Bm  
 They would have never missed a Christmas 

          G                 D 
 No more ribbons on their door 

                D              Bm   
 And when you trust your television 

             G              D 
 What you get is what you got 

                  A            Bm  
 Cause when they own the information 

         G                  D 
 They can bend it all they want 


 That's why we're waiting 

Bm                G              D      
 Waiting on the world to change 

D             A     Bm         
 We keep on waiting, waiting 

                 G             D 
 Waiting on the world to change 

         D               Em7  
 It's not that we don't care, 

          Bm            Em7 
 We just know that the fight ain't fair 

                A      
 So we keep on waiting 

Bm                G             D 
  Waiting on the world to change

 Is gonna rule the population
