25 years of my life and still 
Bm                                        D                A 
Tryin' to to get up that great big hill of hope, for a destination   
  A         
I realized quickly when I knew I should  
         Bm                                            D 
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man 
                     A 
For whatever that means
          A 
And so I cry sometimes, when I'm lying in bed 
       Bm 
Just to get it all out, what's in my head, then I
D                           A 
I am feeling, a little peculiar
          A 
And so I wake in the morning, and I step outside 
      Bm  
And I take a deep breath, and I get real high, and I 
D                                                A 
Scream from the top of my lungs, "What's going on?" 
 
             A                  Bm 
And I say, "Hey yeah yeah hey, hey yeah yeah"  
        D                  A 
I said, "Hey, what's going on?" 
            A                   Bm 
And I say, "Hey yeah yeah hey, hey yeah yeah" 
  D                        A       
I said, "Hey, what's going on?"

      A                     Bm               D                A 
And I try, oh my God, do I try, I try all the time, in this institution
 
       A                     Bm                        D 
And I pray, oh my God, do I pray, I pray every single day
          A 
For a revolution
