D
Twenty-five years I'm alive here still
Em G
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
D
For a destination
D
I realized quickly when I knew I should
Em G
The world was made up of this brotherhood of man
D
For whatever that means
D
And so I cry sometimes
Em
When I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out
What's in my head
G D
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar.
D
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
Em
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
G
And I scream from the top of my lungs
D
What's going on?
D Em
And I say: hey yeah yeaaah, hey yeah yea
G D
I said hey, what's going on?
D Em
And I say: hey yeah yeaaah, hey yeah yea
G D
I said hey, what's going on?
