[VERSE 1]
G/B Cmaj7 G
When I was young, I would look in the mirror
G/B Cmaj7 G
Didn't know it then, but now it couldn't be clearer
G/B Cadd9 G
That I remember being filled with such wonder
G/B Cm G
Before learnin' that the world can be harsher
[INTERLUDE 1]
G/B C G
Woo...
G/B Cmaj7 G
oh...
[VERSE 2]
G/B C G
Who you love or the color of your skin
G/B C G
Or the place that you were born and grew up in
G/B Cadd9 G
Shouldn't decide how you will be treated
G/B Cm G
'Cause... we're all the same when everybody's breathing
[CHORUS 1]
G/B Cmaj7 G
Waiting for a change... to set us free
G/B D13 G
Waiting for the day when you can be you and I can be me
G/B Cmaj7 G
Waiting for hope to come around
G/B D13 G
Waiting for the day when hate is lost and love is found
Em7 D/F# G
Waiting for a change...
Em7 D/F# G
Waiting for a change...
[INTERLUDE 2]
G/B C G
Change,
G/B C G
Change
[VERSE 3]
G/B C G
For all the brave and the souls who went before us
G/B C G
Stand tall, be proud and lift your voices
G/B Cadd9 G
Let 'em know who we are and our choices
G/B Cm G
And one day we won't have to sing this chorus
[CHORUS 2]
G/B Cmaj7 G
Waiting for a change... to set us free
G/B D13 G
Waiting for the day when you can be you and I can be me
G/B Cadd9 G
Waiting for hope to come around
G/B D13 G
Waiting for the day when hate is lost and love is found
Em7 D/F# G
Waiting for a change...
Em7 D/F# G
Waiting for a change...
