| E | A | B7 | E | | There comes a time, when we | hear a | certain | call |
|
| A | B7 | E | When the | world must | come together as | one |
|
| C#m | Abm | There are | people dying, and it's | time to lend a hand. |
|
| A | B7 | To | life the greatest gift of | all |
|
|
We can't go on, pretending day by day |
|
That someone somewhere will soon make a change |
|
We are all part of God's great big family |
|
And the truth, you know that love is all we need |
|
|
| | A | B7 | E | | We are the | world, | we are the | children |
|
| | A | B7 | A | | We are the | ones who make a brighter | day so let's start | giving |
|
| | C#m | | There's a | choice we're making |
|
| | Abm | | We're | saving our own lives |
|
| | A | B7 | E | | It's true, | we'll make a better | day just you and | me. |
|
|
Send them your heart, so they'll know that someone cares |
|
And their lives will be stronger and free |
|
As God has shown us, by turning stones to bread. |
|
So that we all must lend a helping hand. |

|
| | D | E | | There | seems no hope at | all |
|
| | C | D | E | | But if you | just believe there's | no way we can | fall |
|
| | C#m | | Well, well, well, well, let's | realise |
|
| | Abm | | That a | change can only come |
|
| | A | B7 | | When | we stand together as | one |
