1. 25 years and my life is still
   Hmi
   Tryin' to to get up that great big hill of
   D                      A
   Hope, for a destination.

   I realized quickly when I knew I should
   Hmi
   That the world was made up of this brotherhood of
   D                          A
   Man, whatever that means. 
      
             A
R: And so I cry sometimes, when I'm lying in bed
           Hmi
   just to get all out, what's in my head, then
      D                            A
   I, I am feeling, a little peculiar.
         A
   And so I wake in the morning, and I step outside
           Hmi
   And I take a deep breath, and I get real high, and
      D                                             A
   I, scream from the top of my lungs, "What's going on?"

            A                  Hmi        
And I say, "Hey yeah yeah hey, hey yeah yeah."
         D                 A 
I said, "Hey, what's going on?"
            A                  Hmi        
And I say, "Hey yeah yeah hey, hey yeah yeah."
         D                 A 
I said, "Hey, what's going on?"

2. And I try, oh my god, do I try
 
   I try all the
   D                      A
   time, in this institution. 
    A                         Hmi
   And I pray, oh my god, do I pray
 
   I pray every single
    D                A
   day, for a revolution. 

   R:
