Verso 1: 
E                            A5        B5     E 
There comes a time when we heed a certain call 
          A5         B5               E 
When the world must come together as one 
             C#5 
There are people dying 
             B5                    A5 
Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life 
                      B5 
The greatest gift of all 

Verso 2: 
E                          A5 B5   E 
We can't go on pretending day by day 
          A5         B5                E 
That someone, somehow will soon make a change 
             C#5              B5 
We're all a part of God's great big family 
           A5                        B5 
And the truth you know love is all we need

            A5                       B5                  E 
We are the ones who make a brighter day so let's start giving 
          C#5                       B5 
There's a choice we're making we're saving our own lives 
     A5                        B5               E 
It's true we'll make a better day just you and me 

Verso 3: 
E                             A5      B5       E 
Send'em your heart so they know that someone cares 
          A5         B5               E 
And their lives will be stronger and free 
              C#5			B5 
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread 
	   A5			   B5 
And so we all must lend a helping hand

Ponte: 
              C5                   D5             E 
When you're down and out there seems no hope at all 
              C5                   D5             E 
But if you just believe there's no way we can fall 
                        C#5            B5 
Well, well, well, let's realize that a change can only come
