[Gm] [355333]
[G]C [355433]032010
Dm xx0231
First verse:
Every l[F]ife, every b[Fmaj7]eating heart
Has a se[Bb]arching soul inside
Ever ne[Fsus4]eding, ever seeking out
The me[Gm]aning to life
I re[F]fuse to be[Fmaj7]lieve that we're only h[Bb]ere to live and die
In the f[Fsus4]utile days of a fait[Gm]hless haze
N[Dm]ever asking w[G]hy, why would [C]I
When I've f[Dm]elt the h[G]and of ete[C]rnity
It's a le[Dm]gacy [G]I will l[Bb]eave, I want to leave
For the children of the wo[F]rld
Every single little [Bb]boy and girl
Heaven plants a special s[C]eed
And we must have fa[Dm]ith for th[Bb]ese
Second verse:
I will st[F]and for the [Fmaj7]truth I've seen
So the tr[Bb]uth is seen in me
I will g[Fsus4]ive from the sou[Gm]rce of love
So [Dm]all that I bel[G]ieve is handed d[C]own
For the r[Dm]oad that's y[G]et to be trav[C]elled on
By the o[Dm]nes who w[G]ill carry [Bb]on, I'll carry on
Chorus:
For the children of the wo[F]rld
Every single little [Bb]boy and girl
Heaven plants a special s[C]eed
And we must have fa[F]ith for these
Red and yellow, black and wh[F]ite
They are precious in the Fa[Bb]ther's eyes
Like the Father may we s[C]ee
That they have a de[Dm]stiny, y[Bb]eah
And give them the l[Gm]ight of l[Bb]ove to l[C]ead
T[Dm]hrough t[G]he darkness ar[C]ound us now
T[Dm]o a pl[G]ace where h[Bb]ope is found
Repeat Chorus:
