There are children raised in sorrow
       Em7
on a scorched and barren plain
            C                Am	              G   D7
there are children raised beneath the golden sun
            G          
There are children of the water, 
  Em 
children of the sand
           C                 Am
and they cry out through the universe 
       F               D     D4
their voices raised as one

D          G                G7
I want to live, I want to grow

I want to share what I can give
           D             G4   G  D7
I want to be, I want to live

          G
Have you gazed out on the ocean
           Em7
seen the breaching of a whale?
          C                     Am           G    D7
Have you watched the dolphins frolic in the foam?
          G 
Have you heard the song the humpback hears 
      Em7
five hundred miles away
         C                Am
Telling tales of ancient history
    F            D
of passages and home

         Am                      Em
For the worker and warrior, the lover and the liar
         F              Am          G
For the native and the wanderer in kind
         Am                         Em
For the maker and the user and the mother and her son

I am looking for my family and all of you are mine

         G
We are standing all together 
         Em7
face to face and arm in arm
         C               Am            G    D7
We are standing on the treshold of a dream
         G          
No more hunger, no more killing
         Em7
no more wasting like a way
       C          Am
It is simply an idea
        F                D    D4
