[Intro]
Eb Cm C#
[Chorus]
C# Eb Cm C#
People killin' people dyin'
C# Eb Cm C#
Children hurtin', I hear them cryin'
C# Eb Cm C#
Can you practice what you preachin'?
C# Eb Fm
Would you turn the other cheek again?
Eb C# Eb C#
Mama, mama, mama, tell us what the hell is goin' on
Fm Eb Fm
Can we all just get along?
Fm Eb C#
Father, Father, Father, help us
Eb C#
Send some guidance from above
Eb C#
Cause people got me, got me questioning
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
[Verse 1: will.i.am (Jamie Foxx & Mary J. Blige)]
C#
Yo, what's going on with the world, momma?
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Yo, people living like they ain't got no momma
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
I think they all distracted by the drama
C#
And attracted to the trauma, mama
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
I think they don't understand the concept or the meaning of karma
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
[Verse 2: Diddy (Mary J. Blige)]
C#
Overseas, yeah, they trying to stop terrorism
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Over here on the streets, the police shoot
C#
The people put the bullets in 'em
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
But if you only got love for your own race
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Then you're gonna leave space for others to discriminate
Eb Fm
(Where's the love)
[Verse 3: will.i.am]
Fm Eb C#
And to discriminate only generates hate
Eb C#
And when you hate, then you're bound to get irate
Fm Eb
Madness is what you demonstrate
Eb Fm
And that's exactly how hate works and operates
Eb C#
Man, we gotta set it straight
Eb C#
Take control of your mind, just meditate
Eb C#
And let your soul just gravitate to the love
Eb C#
So the whole world celebrate it
[Chorus: will.i.am, Mary J. Blige, Andra Day, Nicole Scherzinger & Tori Kelly]
C# Eb Cm C#
People killin' people dyin'
C# Eb Cm C#
Children hurtin', I hear them cryin'
Eb Cm C#
Can you practice what you preachin'?
Eb Fm
Would you turn the other cheek again?
Eb C# Eb C#
Mama, mama, mama, tell us what the hell is goin' on
C# Fm Eb
Can't we all just get along?
Eb Fm C#
Father, Father, Father, help us
Eb C#
Send some guidance from above
C# Eb C#
Cause people got me, got me questioning
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
[Verse 4: Taboo (Jessie J & Andra Day)]
C#
It just ain't the same, always in change
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
New days are strange, is the world insane?
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Nation droppin' bombs killing our little ones
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Ongoing suffering as the youth die young
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
[Verse 5: Game]
C#
Where's the love when a child gets murdered
C#
Or a cop gets knocked down
Eb C#
Black lives, not now, everybody matter to me
C#
All races, y'all don't like what I'm sayin'? Haterade, tall cases
Eb C#
Everybody hate somebody, guess we all racist
C#
Black Eyed Peas do a song about love and y'all hate this
Eb C#
All these protest with different colored faces
C#
We was all born with a heart, why we gotta chase it?
Eb C#
And every time I look around
[Verse 6: Taboo + Ty Dolla $ign (Mary J. Blige & Jessie J)]
C#
Every time I look up, every time I look down
C#
No one's on a common ground
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
And if you never speak truth, then you never know how love sounds
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
And if you never know love, then you never know God, wow
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Where's the love y'all? I don't, I don't know
C#
Where's the truth y'all? I don't know
[Chorus: Justin Timberlake]
Eb
People killin' people dyin'
Eb C#
Children hurtin', I hear them cryin'
C#
Can you practice what you preach?
Eb C#
Would you turn the other cheek?
C#
Father, Father, Father, help us
Eb C#
Send some guidance from above
C#
Cause people got me, got me questioning
Eb Fm C#
(Where's the love, where's the love)
[Bridge: DJ Khaled (Usher, Nicole Scherzinger, will.i.am & Justin Timberlake)]
C#
Love is the key
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C# Eb
Love is the answer
Eb
(Where's the love)
Love is the solution
Fm C#
(Where's the love)
C#
They don't want us to love
C#
(Where's the love)
Eb
Love is powerful
C#
(Where's the love)
[Verse 7: A$AP Rocky + Jaden Smith]
C
My mama asked me why I never vote, never vote
C# Eb
Cause police men want me dead and gone, dead and gone
C#
That election looking like a joke, such a joke, man
Eb C#
And the weed man still sellin' dope, oh no
C# Eb
Somebody gotta give these niggas hope, give us hope
Eb Eb C#
All he ever wanted was a smoke, my gosh
C#
Said he can't breathe with his hands in the air
Eb C#
Layin' on the ground died from a choke
[Verse 8: apl.de.ap + Fergie]
C#
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
C#
As I'm gettin' older y'all people gets colder
Eb C#
Most of us only care about money makin'
C# Eb C#
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction
C#
Wrong information was shown by the media
Eb C#
Negative images is the main criteria
C#
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
C# Eb C#
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinemas
C#
What happened to the love and the values of humanity?
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
What happened to the love and the fairness and equality?
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Eb C#
(Where's the love)
C#
Lack of understanding leading us away from unity
Eb Fm
(Where's the love)
