guitar chords lyrics
Standard Tuning
No Capo
The entire song is just a I V vi IV progression in C major
C G Am F:||
C
I'm feeling powerless
G
I'm feeling hopeless
Am F
I see the world beneath us open to the darkness
C
I see it everywhere
G
There's no progress
Am F
It's like I'm slowly giving into all the madness
C G Am F
I stand here imperfect right before you
Been searching so long for a way to get through
Swallowed the universe abandoned my youth
I still can't forsake what I feel is true
I was made out of dust by a voice in the wind
To conquer my fears and rise like king
I will always evolve and never give in
I will follow my dreams cause I know I will win
F C
And if you don't take a stand
G
You won't understand
C
We will overcome
G
We will overcome
Am
It's written in the wind
F C
Set the wheels in motion and rise again
G Am
Higher and higher and higher
F
Higher and higher
Am G
We will overcome
C
My friend
C G Am F
And I will not justify what I did
Through the pain sweat and tears I have learned to forgive
So live out your life cause it is a gift
And rise up above; take the whole world with you
I stand here naked this is my truth
Hold on to your innocence and beauty of youth
And don't ever forget the power lies within
Being born ain't a crime you can be what you want to
F C
And if you don't take a stand
G
You won't understand
C
We will overcome
G
We will overcome
Am
It's written in the wind
F C
Set the wheels in motion and rise again
G Am
Higher and higher and higher
F
Higher and higher
Am G
We will overcome
C
My friend
C
I'm feeling powerless
G
I'm feeling hopeless

I see the world beneath us open to the darkness
C
I see it everywhere

There's no progress
Am F
It's like I'm slowly giving into all the madness
C
We will overcome
G
We will overcome
Am
It's written in the wind
F C
Set the wheels in motion and rise again
G Am
Higher and higher and higher

Higher and higher

My friend

I'm feeling powerful

Am F
If we unite as one then everything is possible
end on C
