John Denver - I want to live

There are^D children raised in sorrow On a sc^Bmorched and barren pla^Din G Em D – A7 There are children raised beneath a golden sun There are^D children of the water C^Bmhildren of the s^Dand And they c^Gry out through the u^Emniverse Their Vo^Cices rai^Ased as one

^AI want to ^Dlive i want to g^Dmaj7row I want to ^Gsee i want to k^Gadd9now I want to sh^Aare what i can gi^Gve I want to ^Abe i want to li^Dve

Have you ^Dgazed out on the ocean Seen the br^Bmeaching of a whal^De? G Em D – A7 Have you watched the dolphins frolic in the foam? Have you h^Deard the song the humpback hears five^Bm hundred ^Dmiles away Telling t^Gales of ancient h^Emistory of p^Cassages and h^Aome? (chorus)

(Bridge) For^Em the worker and the warrio^Bmr the lover and the liar For the na^Ctive and the w^Emanderer in k^Dind For the^Em maker and the user and the ^Bmmother and her son I am l^Cooking for m^Emy family an^Cd all of you ar^A7e mine

We are s^Dtanding all together Face to ^Bmface and arm in a^Drm G Em D – A7 We are standing on the threshold of a dream No more ^Dhunger no more killing No more was^Bmting life a^Dway It is si^Gmply an i^Emdea and I kn^Cow it’s t^Aime has come (Chorus Repeat last line 2X)
