E----8--------8------------6--6-6--6-6----|
What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world's addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma
Overseas, yeah, we...
G-----------------------------------------|
D------7----------------------8-8---------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5--7-8----------------|
E----8--------8------------6-------6-6-6--|
...try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods and the Crips and the KKK
But if you only...
G-----------------------------------------|
D------7----------------------------------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5--7-8----------------|
E----8--------8------------6--6-6--6-6----|
... have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah
G-----------------------------------------|
D------7----------------------------------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5--7-8----------------|
E----8--------8------------6-6-6--6-6-6---|
Badness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
But you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind, meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all
[Chorus] = Intro, three times.
People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek
Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cuz people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love?
The love, the love
Where is the love, the love, the love?
[Verse 2]
G---------------------|
D---------------------|
A-8-----7-----5-------|
E-------------------6-|
It just ain't the same, always unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane?
If love and peace are so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs

D------7----------------------------------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5--7-8----------------|
E----8--------8------------6--6-6--6-6----|
Chemical gases fillin' lungs of little ones
With ongoin' suffering as the youth die young
So I ask myself what is really going wrong
So I ask myself what is really going on
In this...
G-----------------------------|
D-----------------------------|
A-8------7--5--7-8------------|
E----8-8-----------6--6-6--6-6|
...world that we're livin' in people keep on givin' in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividens
Not respecting each other, deny thy brother
The war is going on but the reason's undercover
G-----------------------------------------|
D------7----------------------------------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5---------------------|
E----8--------8--------------6-6--6-6-6---|
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth, then you never know love
Where's the love, James? (I don't know)
Where's the truth, James? (I don't know),
(Where's the love y'all!)
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
G----------------------------------|
D----------------------------------|
A-8-----7-----5----7-8-------------|
E----------------------6--6-6--6-6-|
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm getting older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction
G-----------------------------------------|
D------7----------------------------------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5--7-8----------------|
E----8--------8------------6--6-6--6-6----|
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what the see in the cinema, yeah
G-----------------------------------------|
D------7----------------------------------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5---------------------|
E----8--------8------------6--6-6--6-6----|
Yo, whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
G-----------------------------------------|
D------7----------------------------------|
A-8------8-7----7-8-5--7-8----------------|
E----8--------8------------6--------------|
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
I gotta keep my faith alive 'til love is found
[Chorus] is played, this is sung:
Now ask yourself
Come on, ask yourself, murda
Add me some sugar!
I am, am your neighbour!
-
Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cuz people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love?
The love, the love
Where is the love, the love, the love?
