[Verse] D Bm G D Me and all my friends, we're all misunderstood. A Bm G D They say we stand for nothing, and theres no way we ever could. D Bm G D Now we see everything that's going wrong with the world and those who lead it A Bm G D We just feel like we don't have the means to rise above and beat it. [Chorus] D Bm G D So we keep waiting, [waiting] waiting on the world to change. A Bm G D We keep on waiting, [waiting] waiting on the world to change. D Em Bm Em7 It's hard to beat the system, when you're standing at a distance, A Bm G D So we keep waiting, [waiting] waiting on the world to change. [Verse] D Bm G D Now if we had the power to bring our neighbors home from war A Bm G D They would have never missed a Christmas, no more ribbons on their door D Bm G D And when you trust your television, what you get is what you got A Bm G D Cause when they own the information, oh they can bend it all they want [Chorus] D Bm G D That's why we're waiting [waiting] waiting on the world to change A Bm G D We keep on waiting [waiting] waiting on the world to change D Em Bm Em7 It's not that we don't care, we just know that the fight ain't fair A Bm G D So we keep on waiting [waiting] waiting on the world to change [Solo and intro lick] [Chorus] D Bm G D And we're still waiting [waiting] waiting on the world to change A Bm G D We keep on waiting [waiting] waiting on the world to change D Em Bm Em7 One day our generation is gonna rule the population A Bm G D So we keep on waiting [waiting] waiting on the world to change A Bm G D we keep on waiting [waiting] waiting on the world to change
