Verse 1
A                         D 
I've been staring at the world, waiting 
A                         E 
I've been looking for a change lately 
A                         D 
All the trouble, all the pain we're facing 
A                     E 
Someone's gotta be the hope and someone's gotta be the love 
 
Pre-Chorus
A                    D 
Too much light to be livin' in the dark 
A                           E 
Where are we going, we ain't getting very far 
A             D                 A 
Why waste time, we only got one life 
 
Chorus

And don't you know it starts today 
D                 A      E  
And baby no, it's not too late

And watch it catch like a wildfire 
              F#m 
I believe in you and I 
    E                    A   D 
Together we can be the change 
     A     D        A      E       F#m 
Woah oh oh oh, Woah oh oh oh, Woah oh oh 
E                      A 
Together we can be the change
