Intro C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am 

C                     Dm           Am                C 
 I'm not the one who made the world what it is today 
                      Dm          Am                     C 
I'm not the one who caused the problems started long ago 
                    Dm         Am                               C 
But now I deal with all the consequence that troubles our times 
                Dm     Am 
I carry on and never once have even questioned why 

 Am        Bm  C 
Yeah, now, I'm innocent 
                            Dm  Am 
But the weight of the world is on my shoulders 
 Am        Bm  C 
Yeah, now, I'm innocent 
                    Dm   Am 
Rhe battles started are far from over 
 C  Dm  Am   C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am 
Yeeeeeeah, ooooooooh 

C                         Dm         Am                             C 
 We 're not the ones who leave the homeless in the streets at night 
                           Dm      Am                    C 
We're not the ones who've kept minorities and women down 
                    Dm        Am                        C 
Still we grow and then the problems they become our own 
                Dm   Am 
We carry on without even realizing why 

 Am         Bm   C 
Yeah, now, we're innocent 
                            Dm  Am 
But the weight of the world is on our shoulders 
 Am         Bm   C 
Yeah, now, we're innocent 
                    Dm   Am 
The battles started are far from over 
 C  Dm  Am   C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am 
Yeeeeeeah, ooooooooh

 Am         Bm   C 
Yeah, now, we're innocent 
                    Dm   Am 
The battles started are far from over 
 Am         Bm   C 
Yeah, now, we're innocent 
                            Dm  Am 
But the weight of the world is on our shoulders 
 Am         Bm   C 
Yeah, now, we're innocent 
                    Dm   Am 
The battles started are far from over 
 G 
Yeeeeeeah 

( C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am  C  Dm  Am ) 

C                       Dm        Am                                     C 
 We're not the ones pollution blackened our skies and ruined our streams 
                        Dm        Am                                  C  
We're not the ones who made the nuclear bombs that threaten our lives 
                        Dm         Am                           C 
We're not the ones who let the children starve in faraway lands 
                        Dm           Am                         C 
We're not the ones who made the streets unsafe to walk at night 
                 Dm       Am                     C 
And even if we try and not become so overwhelmed 
                     Dm     Am                        C 
And if we make some contribution to the plight we see 
                       Dm      Am                       C 
Still our descendants will inherit the mistakes we made 
                         Dm       Am 
They'll suffer just the same as we and never wonder why
