Do Something

Matthew West

Key:
E [Verse 1]
E I woke up this morning
E Saw a world full of trouble now
E Thought, how’d we ever get so far down
E How’s it ever gonna turn around
A So I turned my eyes to Heaven
A E I thought, “God, why don’t You do something?”
E Well, I just couldn’t bear the thought of
E People living in poverty
E Children sold into slavery
E The thought disgusted me
A So, I shook my fist at Heaven
A E Said, “God, why don’t You do something?”
E F#m A E He said, “I did, I created you” [Chorus]
E If not us, then who
E If not me and you
A E Right now, it’s time for us to do something
E If not now, then when
Continues after the ad
E Will we see an end
A To all this pain
A C#m A It’s not enough to do nothing
E It’s time for us to do something [Verse 2]
E I’m so tired of talking
E About how we are God’s hands and feet
E But it’s easier to say than to be
E A Live like angels of apathy who tell ourselves
A It’s alright, “somebody else will do
E something”
E Well, I don’t know about you
E But I’m sick and tired of life with no desire
E I don’t want a flame, I want a fire
A I wanna be the one who stands up and says,
A E “I’m gonna do something” [Chorus]
E If not us, then who
E If not me and you
A E Right now, it’s time for us to do something
E If not now, then when
E Will we see an end
A To all this pain
A C#m A It’s not enough to do nothing
E It’s time for us to do something [Bridge]
C#m A We are the salt of the earth
A E We are a city on a hill (shine shine, shine shine)
C#m But we’re never gonna change the
A world
B By standing still
B No we won’t stand still [Chorus]
E If not us, then who
E If not me and you
A E Right now, it’s time for us to do something
E If not now, then when
E Will we see an end
A To all this pain
A C#m A It’s not enough to do nothing
E It’s time for us to do something
