C
  I watch my generation die
Am
  I watch the heads of nations lie
F
  I watch the homeless on the 
streets
C                            G
  I stand here helpless just lookin'
 at my feet

[Second Part]

C
  I watch the children run away
Am
  The bullets fly where they would 
play
F
  I watch a junkie fade away
C                             G
  I ain't got an answer but I sure 
got things to say

[Chorus]

    C
Hey Hey, I gotta find a way
                  Am
Cause the road is dark gotta light 
my way
                F          Fm
Gotta fight the fear in my heart

[Third Part]

C
  I watch the old folks sit alone
Am
  They talk to ghosts they used to 
know
F
  Where are the wise men of the 
tribe
C                                
  Where are the midwives and the 
G
newborn's cry, yeah

[Fourth Part]

C
  I wish that I could I'd turn back 
time
Am
  Way back before there was 
corporate crime
F
  We'd fight the wind to plant our 
seed
C                                 
  When the earth was stronger than
    G
 the human greed

[Chorus]

Hey, I gotta find a way
                  Am
Cause the road is dark gotta light 
my way
