[Intro] C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am

C                     Dm           Am                C
 I'm not the one who made the world what it is today
                      Dm          Am                     C
I'm not the one who caused the problems started long ago
                    Dm         Am                               C
But now I deal with all the consequence that troubles our times
                Dm     Am
I carry on and never once have even questioned why

 Am        Bm  C
Yeah, now, I'm innocent
                            Dm  Am
But the weight of the world is on my shoulders
 Am        Bm  C
Yeah, now, I'm innocent
                    Dm   Am
Rhe battles started are far from over
 C  Dm  Am   C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am
Yeeeeeeah, ooooooooh

C                         Dm         Am                             C
 We 're not the ones who leave the homeless in the streets at night
                           Dm      Am                    C
We're not the ones who've kept minorities and women down
                    Dm        Am                        C
Still we grow and then the problems they become our own
                Dm   Am
We carry on without even realizing why

 Am         Bm   C
Yeah, now, we're innocent
                            Dm  Am
But the weight of the world is on our shoulders
 Am         Bm   C
Yeah, now, we're innocent
                    Dm   Am
The battles started are far from over
 C  Dm  Am   C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am
Yeeeeeeah, ooooooooh

( C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am )

 Am         Bm   C
Yeah, now, we're innocent
                            Dm  Am
But the weight of the world is on our shoulders
 Am         Bm   C
Yeah, now, we're innocent
                    Dm   Am
The battles started are far from over
 Am         Bm   C
Yeah, now, we're innocent
                            Dm  Am
But the weight of the world is on our shoulders
 Am         Bm   C
Yeah, now, we're innocent
                    Dm   Am
The battles started are far from over
 G
Yeeeeeeah

( C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am )

C                       Dm        Am                                     C
 We're not the ones pollution blackened our skies and ruined our streams
                        Dm        Am                                  C 
We're not the ones who made the nuclear bombs that threaten our lives
                        Dm         Am                           C
We're not the ones who let the children starve in faraway lands
                        Dm           Am                         C
We're not the ones who made the streets unsafe to walk at night
                 Dm       Am                     C
And even if we try and not become so overwhelmed
                     Dm     Am                        C
And if we make some contribution to the plight we see
                       Dm      Am                       C
Still our descendants will inherit the mistakes we made
                         Dm       Am
They'll suffer just the same as we and never wonder why
