Me and all my friends, we're all misunderstood.
They say we stand for nothing, and theres no way we ever could.
Now we see everything thats going wrong with the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means to rise above and beat it.
So we keep waiting, waiting on the world to change.
We keep on waiting, waiting on the world to change.
It's hard to beat the system, when you're standing at a distance,
So we keep waiting, waiting on the world to change.
Now if we had the power to bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas, No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television, What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh, They can bend it all they want
That's why we're waiting Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care, We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change

So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
Now we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting, waiting on the world to change.

[D]Me and all my fr[Bm]iends, we're a[G]ll misundersto[D]od.
They s[A]ay we stand for not[Bm]hing, and theres no wa[G]y we ever cou[D]ld.
Now we see ever[D]ything thats g[Bm]oing wrong with the w[G]orld and those who l[D]ead it
We just f[A]eel like we don't h[Bm]ave the means to r[G]ise above and b[D]eat it.
So we keep wai[D]ting, [Bm] waiting on the wor[G]ld to cha[D]nge.
We keep on wai[A]ting, [Bm] waiting on the wo[G]rld to ch[D]ange.
It's ha[D]rd to beat the sy[G]stem, when you're sta[Bm]nding at a dis[G]tance,
So we keep wai[A]ting, [Bm] waiting on the wo[G]rld to ch[D]ange.
Now i[D]f we had the po[Bm]wer to bring our neig[G]hbors home from wa[D]r
They would have ne[A]ver missed a Ch[Bm]ristmas, No more ri[G]bbons on their doo[D]r
And when you tr[D]ust your tel[Bm]evision, What you g[G]et is what you g[D]ot
Cause when they ow[A]n the informa[Bm]tion, oh, They can b[G]end it all they w[D]ant
That's why we're wa[D]iting [Bm] Waiting on the wo[G]rld to chang[D]e
We keep on wai[A]ting [Bm] Waiting on the w[G]orld to chang[D]e
It's no[D]t that we don't c[G]are, We just kn[Bm]ow that the fight [Em]ain't fair
So we keep on [A]waiting [Bm] Waiting on the [G]world to [D]change
