C#M G#M F#M G#M
[Verse 1]
C#M G#M
How many times have you heard them say;
F#M G#M C#M
“The future is uncertain and everything must change”
G#M
Well all of my worries and all of my fears
F#M G#M
Begin to lose their weight, when I hold you near
C#M G#M
If all that we are is what we believe
F#M G#M C#M
Then I know I’ve got to be the change I want to see
G#M
How easy we forget that everything takes time
F#M G#M
No, nothing's ever perfect, but I still call you mine
C#M
Wo-o-ah Wo-o-ah
[Chorus]
