A                    C#m              F#m          A
Nothing's quite as beautiful as the laughter of a child
         Bm                         E
Or the wonder inside every little smile
        A                    C#m              F#m          A
Maybe love and hope and tenderness or laughter soon will leave
          Bm                                   E
Children want a world to grow where they feel free

             A                C#m
Teach the children, light the way
          F#m            A
Help them make a better day
          Bm                               E
Show them how to help each other when they fall
          A            C#m
Learning how to get along
         F#m            A
To show love, yet be strong
            Bm            E              A
Helps the children light the way for us all

             B                D#m
Teach the children, light the way
       G#m             B
They deserve a better day
          C#m                               F#
Show them how to help each other when they fall
          B           D#m
Learning how to get along
         G#m             B
To show love, yet be strong
          C#m      F#                  B
Let the children light the way for us all
          C#m      F#                  B
Let the children light the way for us all
