there are cGhildren raised in sorrow
On a scEorched and barren plain
There are cChildren raised beAmneath a golden sun G
D7There are cGhildren of the water
CEmhildren of the sand
And they cCry out through the uAmniverse
Their voEices raised as Done Dsus4
DI want to Glive i want to gGmaj7row
I want to Csee i want to kCadd9now
I want to shFare what i can giCve
I want to Dbe i want to liGve
Have you Ggazed out on the ocean
Seen the brEmeaching of a whale'
Have you waCtched the dolphins Amfrolic in the foam' G
D7Have you heaGrd the song the humpback hears five hEmundred miles away
Telling tCales of ancient hAmistory of pEassages and home'
(chorus)
For the woAmrker and the warrior the lEmover and the liar
For the naEmtive and the waAmnderer in kiGnd
For the mAmaker and the user and the moEmther and her son
I am looEmking for my fAmamily and aEll of you are mD7ine
We are sGtanding all together
Face to Emface and arm in arm
We are sCtanding on the tAmhreshold of a dream G
D7No more huGnger no more killing
No more wasEmting life away
It is siGmply an iAmdea
And i knEow its time has cDome
Chorus
