[Verse 1]
[G]I got[D] so down and tro[G]ubled[C]
I nearly lost my [G]head[C]
[G]I started wak[D]in' every mor[G]ning
[Em]Filled with sadn[A]ess, fear and [Am]dread[C]
[Dsus4]The world I took for [C]grant[G]ed[C]
Was crashing to [G]the ground[C][G]
[C]And I real[G]ized I might not live long enough
[D]To ever see it tur[G]n aro[C]und

[Verse 2]
[G]Oh, but the[D]n I got to thi[G]nkin'[C]
Of the ones who came be[G]fore[C][G]
Of [D]all [G]the sacrifices that [Em]they made
To open [A]up so [Am]many [C]doors[Dsus4]

[Verse 3]
Doors I got [G]to walk [C]through
On streets paved [G]for [C]me
By people who were [G]workin' on [D]a world
They never got to [G]see[C]

[Verse 4]
[G]Now, now we're workin' on a wor[C]ld
I may never [G]see[C]
[G]I'm joining forces with
the [Em]warriors of [A]love
Who came be[Am]fore and
will follow you and [D]me
I get up [C]in [G]the morning
[C]Knowing I'm privile[G]ged
just to [C]be
Workin' on a [G]world[D]

[Interlude 1]
I may never see
[G][C][G][C][G][C][G][Em][A]
[Am][D][G][C][G][C][G]
[D][G][C][G]
[D]I don't have all the

[Verse 5]
[G]answers[C]
To the troubles of [G]the day[C]
[G]But neither did[D] all our ances[G]tors
[Em]And they per[A]severed [Am]anywa[Dsus4]y
When I [C]see a little [G]baby[C]
Reaching out its arms [G]to [C]me
I remember why I'm [G]workin' on [D]a world
I may never see
[G][C]

[Verse 6]
[G]
I'm workin' on a [C]world I
may never [G]see[C][G]
Joining forces with the [Em]warriors of [A]love
Who came [Am]before and
will follow you and [C]me
[D]I get up in [G]the morning
[C]Knowing I'm privile[G]ged
just to [C]be
Workin' on a [G]world[D]
I may never see
[G]

[Verse 7]
[C]
I'm workin' on [G]a world[D]
I may never see
[G][C][G]
