• C

Standard Tuning 
No Capo 

The entire song is just a I V vi IV progression in C major 
C G Am F:|| 

C 
I'm feeling powerless 
G 
I'm feeling hopeless 
          Am                           F 
I see the world beneath us open to the darkness 
         C 
I see it everywhere 
           G 
There's no progress 
               Am                        F 
It's like I'm slowly giving into all the madness 

C G Am F 
I stand here imperfect right before you 
Been searching so long for a way to get through 
Swallowed the universe abandoned my youth 
I still can't forsake what I feel is true 
I was made out of dust by a voice in the wind 
To conquer my fears and rise like king 
I will always evolve and never give in 
I will follow my dreams cause I know I will win 

F                       C 
And if you don't take a stand 
G 
You won't understand 

        C 
We will overcome 
        G 
We will overcome 
                    Am 
It's written in the wind 
                  F                 C 
Set the wheels in motion and rise again 
           G               Am 
Higher and higher and higher 
            F 
Higher and higher 
Am          G 
We will overcome 
    C 
My friend 

C G Am F 
And I will not justify what I did 
Through the pain sweat and tears I have learned to forgive 
So live out your life cause it is a gift 
And rise up above; take the whole world with you 
I stand here naked this is my truth 
Hold on to your innocence and beauty of youth 
And don't ever forget the power lies within 
Being born ain't a crime you can be what you want to 

F                       C 
And if you don't take a stand 
G 
You won't understand 

        C 
We will overcome 
        G 
We will overcome 
                    Am 
It's written in the wind 
                  F                 C 
Set the wheels in motion and rise again 
           G               Am 
Higher and higher and higher 
            F 
Higher and higher 
Am          G 
We will overcome 
    C 
My friend 

C 
I'm feeling powerless

I see it everywhere 
           G

It's like I'm slowly giving into all the madness 

        C 
We will overcome 
        G 
We will overcome 
                    Am

My friend 

C     
I'm feeling powerful 
            G 
I'm feeling hopeful 
          Am                                    F 
I see the world beneath us change to something beautiful 
         C 
I see it everywhere 
         G 
There is progress 
      Am                              F 
If we unite as one then everything is possible 

end on C
