Capo 5th fret  

G               D               G  
Come and sing a simple song of freedom  
C                              G  
Sing it like you've never sung before  
D                              Em  
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere  
C               D                 G  
We, the people here, don't want a war  

G                  D                    G  
Hey there Mister Black Man can you hear me  
C                                 G  
I don't want your diamond or your game  
D                     Em  
I just want to be someone known to you as me  
     C              D                G  
And I will bet my life you want the same (Chorus)  

G              D                G  
Seven hundred million are you listening  
C                                              G  
Most of what you read, most of what you read is made of lies  
  D                    Em  
Speaking one to one ain't it everybody's sun  
     C              D                G  
To wake to in the morning when we rise (Chorus)  

G              D                  G  
No doubt some folks enjoy doing battle  
         C                            G  
Like presidents, prime ministers and kings  
D                                Em  
So let us build them shelves so they might fight among themselves  
     C             D                G  
And leave us be those who want to sing (Chorus)  

G                 D             G  
Come and sing a simple song of freedom  
C                              G  
Sing it like you've never sung before  
D                              Em  
Speaking one to one ain't it everybody's everybody's sun  
     C              D               G  
To wake to in the morning when we rise, when we arise  
D                              Em  
Speaking one to one ain't it everybody's sun  
     C              D                G  
To wake to in the morning when we arise
