D               Bm            G             D
Me and all my friends, we're all misunderstood.
      A           Bm                           G            D
They say we stand for nothing, and theres no way we ever could.
               D              Bm                   G                   D
Now we see everything that's going wrong with the world and those who lead it
         A            Bm                      G              D
We just feel like we don't have the means to rise above and beat it.

              D        Bm                      G        D
So we keep waiting, (waiting) waiting on the world to change.

We keep on waiting, (waiting) waiting on the world to change.
       D                Em                    Bm           Em7
It's hard to beat the system, when you're standing at a distance,
              A         Bm                     G        D
So we keep waiting, (waiting) waiting on the world to change.


[Verse 2]
D               Bm            G             D
Now if we had the power to bring our neighbors home from war 
      A           Bm                           G            D
They would have never missed a Christmas, no more ribbons on their door
               D              Bm                   G                   D
And when you trust your television, what you get is what you got 
         A            Bm                      G              D
Cause when they own the information, oh they can bend it all they want 


[Chorus]
              D        Bm                      G        D
That's why we're waiting (waiting) waiting on the world to change 
              A        Bm                      G        D
We keep on waiting (waiting) waiting on the world to change 
       D                Em                    Bm           Em7
It's not that we don't care, we just know that the fight ain't fair 
              A         Bm                     G        D
So we keep on waiting (waiting) waiting on the world to change
