[F][Em][Am][C]
[Dm][F][Em][Am][C][Am]
[Dm][F]
[Em]Why [C]don'[Am]t we live in paradise,
what's [C]taking us so long?
[Am]For ever[Dm]y chance to make it right,
[F]we make it [Em]wrong
[C]There's pas[Am]tures full of plenty,
more [C]than we will ever need
But [Dm]still we tear them down for profit,
[F]lost and green
[Em]So m[C]any sc[Am]areheads, airheads,
who [C]put their trust in warhead[Am]s
And [Dm]hide themselves behind a wall
[F]And t[Em]alk of danger[Am]s and strangers
But [C]nothing ever changes
[Am]until [Dm]they see there's room for [Em]all[F]
[Em]For every [Am]one step forward,
there's two [C]steps back
This [Dm]ain't the road to heaven,
it's [F]a cul -de -sac
[Em]For [C]every [Am]one good person, a maniac
[C]But hat[Dm]e will never compensate
the [F]love you lack
[Em]For [C]ever[Dm]y step forward,
[Em]it's always two step[Am]s
[C]back[Am][Dm][F]
[Em]I know[Am] we've come a long way
since we [C]climbed down from the trees
[Am]But some[Dm]times we're not half
as bright as [F]chimpanzees
[Em]More toleran[Am]ce, less ignorance,
just [C]try it and you'll see
[Am]It's not [Dm]rocket science,
only common de[F]cency
[Em]Don't sit in [Am]silence,
as violence an[C]d the D[Am]ark All[C]iance t[Am]ell
[Dm]s you it's the only wa[F]y
[Em]Cause they will [Am]never, ever,
[C]picture us [Am]together
[Dm]Theirs is just the lonely [F]way
[Em]For every [Am]one step forward,
there's two [C]steps back
[Am]This [Dm]ain't the road to heaven,
it's [F]a cul -de -sac
[Em]For every [Am]one good person, a mania[C]c
[Am]But [Dm]hate will never compensate
the [F]love you lack
[Em]For [C]ever[Dm]y step forward,
[Em]it's always two step[Am]s back[C][Am]
[Dm][F][Em][Am][C]
[Am][Dm][F]
[Em]So h[C]ere'[F]s to our new paradise,
[Em]here's to our new world
To [Dm]every man and woman,
every [C]boy and girl
[F]Here's to those who suffered
and [Em]here's to those who tried
[C]We'll [Dm]keep the dream alive
Yeah, we'll [F]keep your dream [Em]alive
For [Am]every one step forward,
there's two steps back
[C]Thi[Am]s ain[Dm]'t the road to heaven,
it's [F]a cul -de -sac
[Em]For [C]every [Am]one good person, a mania[C]c
[Am]But [Dm]hate will never compensate
[Em]the [F]love you lack
[Em]For [C]every [Am]one step forward,
there's two steps back
[C]This ain[Dm]'t the road to heaven,
[Em]it's [F]a cul -de -sac
[Em]For every [Am]one good person, a maniac
[C]But hat[Dm]e will never compensate
the [F]love you lack
[Em]For [C]ever[Dm]y step forward,
[Em]it's always two steps back
