CAPO 2

 

 

[Verse 1]

G

  Twenty-five years and my life is still

  Am

Trying to get up that great big hill

       C            G

Of hope for a destination

   G

I realized quickly when I knew I should

            Am

That the world was made up of this brotherhood

     C                      G

Of man, for whatever that means

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

           G

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed

         Am

Just to get it all out, what's in my head

      C                          G

and I - I am feeling a little peculiar

          G

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside

       Am

and I take a deep breath and I get real high and

 C                                            G

I scream at the top of my lungs "What's going on?"

 

 

[Chorus]

             G           Am

And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

         C                G

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

             G           Am

And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

         C                G

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

 

 

[Interlude]

G     Am C   G

Ooh, Ooh Ooh

G     Am C   G

Ooh, Ooh Ooh

 

 

[Verse]

        G                   Am

And I try, oh my God do I try

               C                  G

I try all the time, in this institution

        G                    Am

And I pray, oh my god do I pray

                     C

I pray every single day

           G

For a revolution

 

[Pre-Chorus]

           G

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed

         Am

Just to get it all out, what's in my head

      C                          G

and I - I am feeling a little peculiar

          G

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside

       Am

and I take a deep breath and I get real high and

 C                                            G

I scream at the top of my lungs "What's going on?"

 

 

[Chorus]

             G           Am

And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

         C                G

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

             G           Am

And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

         C                G

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

 

             G           Am

And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

         C                G

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

             G           Am

And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

         C                G

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

 

 

[Interlude]

G     Am C   G

Ooh, Ooh Ooh
