[Intro]
A (2x) Am (2x) D
[Verse 1]
Em                                     G
I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
A                                     A
Been haunted by a million screams
C                                  D
But I can hear the marching feet
Em                               D
They're moving into the street.
Em                               G
Now did you read the news today 
A                               A
They say the dangers gone away
C                                     D
But I can see the fires still alight
Em                            
There burning into the night.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D                Em
There's too many men
G        A
Too many people
       D        Em           G
Making too many problems
    D        D          Em
And not much love to go round
G        A
Cant you see
          D          Em        G    D         Em
This is a land of confusion.
[Chorus 1]
C           D        Bm            Em
This is the world we live in  (aaaah)
    C             D          Bm         Em
And these are the hands were given (ooooh)
C            D          Bm           Em
Use them and lets start trying (aaaaah)
   C         D           Bm     A (2x) Am (2x) D   
To make it a place worth living in.
[Verse 2]
Em                               G
Ooh superman where are you now
A                                     A
When everything's gone wrong somehow
C                                    D
The men of steel, the men of power
Em                             
Are losing control by the hour.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D           Em
This is the time
G           A
This is the place
      D            Em         G
So we look for the future
            D        D          Em
But there's not much love to go round
G       A              D          Em        G   D        Em
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion.
[Chorus 2]
C           D        Bm            Em
This is the world we live in  (aaaah)
    C             D          Bm         Em
And these are the hands were given (ooooh)
C            D          Bm           Em
Use them and lets start trying (aaaaah)
   C         D           Bm     A  (2x)   Am  (2x)  
To make it a place worth living in.

Yes and the stars were bright
A/C#
All through the night
        E             B/D#      C#m   
And the sound of your laughter
     F#       A
As I held you tight

So long ago

Em                            G
I wont be coming home tonight
A                               A
My generation will put it right
C                             D
Were not just making promises
Em 
That we know, well never keep.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
D        Em
Too many men
G                A
There's too many people
       D        Em         G
Making too many problems
D            D          Em
And not much love to go round
G        A
Cant you see
          D          Em        G   D        Em
This is a land of confusion.
[Chorus 3]

Now this is the world we live in (aaaah)

And these are the hands were given (ooooh)

Use them and lets start trying (aaaah)
   C         D           Bm       Em
To make it a place worth fighting for.
C           D        Bm           Em
This is the world we live in (aaaah)
    C             D          Bm         Em
And these are the names were given (ooooh)
C            D          Bm           Em
Stand up and lets start showing (aaaah)
C              D         Bm    A (2x)  Am  (2x)       D  Em
Just where our lives are going to.
