6         6      6      -6    6        5      -4
Some kids have and some kids don't
5      6        6  6   -6   6     5   -4  -7
And some of us are wondering why
5      6       6        6        -6   6        5  -4
And Mom won't watch the news at night
5           6     6        6       -6       6  5      -4  -7
There's too much stuff that's making her cry
-7   6        5       6
We need some help
-7        6      5   -7
Down here on Earth
-7 6     5       -7          -7 -8 8    6
A thousand prayers, a million words
6     -7    6        5     6
But one voice was heard
5 6          6 6      -6 6      5    -4
A house, a yard, a neighborhood
5          6     6     6     -6     6     5     -4  -7
Where you can ride your new bike to school
5 6      6  6        -6        6       5     -4
A kind of world where Mom and Dad
6     6  6      -6   6 5-4   -7-66
Still believe the golden rule
-7      6     5     6  5-4
Life's not that simple
-7       6       5   -7
Down here on Earth
-7 6     5       -7         -7 -8 8    6
A thousand prayers, a million words
6     -7    6        5     6
But one voice was heard
-7    -7        6     -6  -8   -8
One voice, one simple word
7           -7       6      5  -4
Hearts know what to say
-7     -7        6     -6         -8   -8
One dream can change the world
7        -7 6 5      7   -7   7-7 6 -8 7 6
Keep believing till you find a way
 6   6  6     -6      6   5      -4
Yesterday while walking home
5 6    6        6    -6 6     5 -4  -7
I saw some kid on Newbury road
5    6         6 6 -6   6      5   -4
He pulled a pistol from his bag
5      6         6  6  -6  6 5   -4  -7-66
And tossed it in the river below
-7          6   5     6
Thanks for the help
-7       6      5   -7
Down here on Earth
-7 6     5       -7          -7 -8 8    6
A thousand prayers, a million words
6     -7    6        5     6
But one voice was heard
-7    7-7-66 5   6    
One voice was heard
-7     6       5      6
One voice was heard
