For each chord strike once open, then 6x palm muted)
For once in my life I've got something to say
I wanna say it now, for now is today
A love has been given, so why not enjoy
So let's all grab and let's all enjoy
If the kids are united
Then well never be divided
If the kids are united
Then well never be divided
Just take a look around you, what do you see?
Kids with feelings like you and me
You understand him, hell understand you
For you are him, and he is you
If the kids are united
Then well never be divided
If the kids are united
Then well never be divided

I don't want to be rejected
I don't want to be denied
Then its not my misfortune
That Ive opened up your eyes
Freedom is given
Speak how you feel
I have no freedom
How do you feel?
They can lie to my face
But not to my heart
If we stand together
It will just be the start
If the kids are united
Then well never be divided
If the kids are united
Then well never be divided
