G
There's got to be some reason for all this misery
                  Em
A secret evil corporation somewhere overseas
     C
They're pulling strings, arranging things
       D     G
It's a conspiracy
   G
Or what about the ones who shape the course of history?
                          Em
What if we petitioned for one grand apology?
       C
I'll write to my prime minister
             Em
You, write your president

C                    Em
Everybody's wondering how the world could get this way
   C                         Em
If God is good, and how it could be filled with so much pain
     D
It's not the age-old mystery we made it out to be
          C            Em
Yeah, there's a problem with the world
      C          D        G
And the problem with the world is me
G
Some will say the devil and his legions
                    Em
They put us in a headlock of submission
      C
But they lost all power over me
          D    G
A long, long time ago

  G
And since I was a kid you know I've caused a lot of hurt
                       Em
And no one ever taught me how to put myself first
    C
It came so very naturally
            Em
But I'm not a prodigy

    C                     Em
So I will look no further than a mirror
      C            G
That's where the offender hides
   C               Em
So great is my need for a redeemer
      G
That I cannot trust myself
      C
No, I cannot trust myself
  Em               D
I dare not trust myself
                 G
So I trust in someone else

    G
The sooner you can sing along, The sooner you can sing this song
    Em                                 D
The sooner you can sing along, The sooner you can sing this song
    G
The sooner you can sing along, The sooner you can sing this song
    Em                      D
The happier we'll be, the happier we'll be

    G
The sooner you can sing along, The sooner you can sing this song
    Em
The happier we'll be
   C          D                 G
The problem with the world is me
