Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 And the point of my life is what
 What if it doesn't add up
 And the trouble was all for naught
 Chalk it to the state of the world
 Revelations are soon forgot
 If only humankind was not so heartless now
 Heartless now
 It's hard to love your fellow man
 However can I help myself
 From harboring such evil
 And the reason of pain is clear
 Never learned the lesson of bliss
 All the riches to squander here
 If only humankind was not so selfish now
 Selfish now
 It's hard to love your fellow man
 However can I help myself
 From harboring such evil
 Heartless now
 Heartless now
 Ooh oh oh
 And the point of the stars is to shine
 Shine a little light in our way
 When the fear in my heart leaves me blind
 Even in the light of the day
 Come stumbling out
 Ooh ooh ooh
 If only humankind was not so heartless now
 Heartless now
 It's hard to love your fellow man
 However can I help myself
 From harboring such evil
 Whenever we're so heartless now
 Heartless now
 Oh oh oh

And the point of my life is what
What if it doesn't add up
And the trouble was all for naught
Chalk it to the state of the world
Revelations are soon forgot

If only humankind was not so heartless now
Heartless now
It's hard to love your fellow man
However can I help myself
From harboring such evil

And the reason of pain is clear
Never learned the lesson of bliss
All the riches to squander here

If only humankind was not so selfish now
Selfish now
It's hard to love your fellow man
However can I help myself
From harboring such evil

Heartless now
Heartless now
Ooh oh oh

And the point of the stars is to shine
Shine a little light in our way
When the fear in my heart leaves me blind
Even in the light of the day
Come stumbling out
Ooh ooh ooh

If only humankind was not so heartless now
Heartless now
It's hard to love your fellow man
However can I help myself
From harboring such evil

Whenever we're so heartless now
Heartless now
Oh oh oh
