For Future Generations(Chords)

	        

Intro: 

C  Dm  G  C 


verse 1: 

F              C/E               G    C 
The signs are obvious; they are everywhere 
F           C/E                 C        D/F# 
All that we hear about is the gloom and despair 
     F              C/E                     G/B       C 
Too many would be prophets sayin? it?s the end of it all 
         F                 G                 Am             G 
?Cause mother earth can?t take much more; the hammer?s gonna fall 


verse 2: 

F         C/E                       G      C 
So nature has its needs, that?s a lesson learned 
F        C/E                     C        D 
But it appears to me there are greater concerns 
        F               C/E                      G/B      C 
?Cause we can save the planet, thinkin? we will somehow survive 
      Am             G            Am              G 
But father time is calling us to save somebody?s life 




            C 
So I won?t bend and I won?t break 
         Am 
I won?t water down my faith 
          F              G             C    G 
I won?t compromise in a world of desperation 
          C 
What has been I cannot change 
          Dm7 
But for tomorrow and today 
       G                         C      Am   G 
I must be a light for future generations 



verse 3: 

F           C/E              G          C 
If we could find a way to preserve our faith 
F             C/E               C              D 
So those who follow us see the price that was paid 
       F               C/E                    G/B       C 
Then maybe when they question what it?s gonna take to survive 
         Am                   G           Am             G 
They?ll find the strength to carry on in what we leave behind 


Repeat Chorus 1 


Bridge: 

F 
Lookin? in the eyes of the children 
C/E 
Knowing that tomorrow is at stake 
Am 
When the choice is up to them 
                     G/B 
Will they have the strength to say 



          C# 
We won?t bend and we won?t break 
          A#m 
We won?t water down our faith 
           F#             G#           C#    G# 
We won?t compromise in a world of desperation 
          C# 
What has been we cannot change 
          D#m7 
But for tomorrow and today 
        G#              C# 
We must be a light for future generations 



Repeat Chorus 2 


Tag: 

        C#              G#         C# 
We must be a light for future generations 
        C#              G#         C# 
We must be a light for future generations 
        C#              G#         C# 
We must be a light for future generations
