C                     Dm          
 I'm not the one who made the 
 Am                C
world what it is today
                      Dm      
I'm not the one who caused the 
    Am                     C
problems started long ago
                    Dm     
But now I deal with all the 
    Am                             
consequence that troubles our times
  C

                Dm     Am
I carry on and never once have even 
questioned why

 Am        Bm  C
Yeah, now, I'm innocent
                            Dm  Am
But the weight of the world is on my
 shoulders
 Am        Bm  C
Yeah, now, I'm innocent
                    Dm   Am
Rhe battles started are far from 
over
 C  Dm  Am   C  Dm  Am  C  Dm 
Yeeeeeeah, ooooooooh
 Am  C  Dm  Am


C                         Dm     
 We 're not the ones who leave 
    Am                             C
the homeless in the streets at night
                           Dm 
We're not the ones who've kept 
     Am                    C
minorities and women down
                    Dm        Am  
Still we grow and then the 
                      C
problems they become our own

why

 Am         Bm   C
Yeah, now, we're innocent

our shoulders

Yeah, now, we're innocent

C                       Dm 
 We're not the ones pollution 
       Am                          
blackened our skies and ruined our 
           C
streams
                        Dm     
We're not the ones who made the 
   Am                          
nuclear bombs that threaten our 
        C
lives
                        Dm    
We're not the ones who let the 
     Am                           C
children starve in faraway lands
                        Dm     
We're not the ones who made the 
      Am                         C
streets unsafe to walk at night
                 Dm       Am      
And even if we try and not become 
               C
so overwhelmed
                     Dm     Am    
And if we make some contribution 
                    C
to the plight we see
                       Dm      Am 
Still our descendants will inherit
                      C
 the mistakes we made
                         Dm       
They'll suffer just the same as we 
Am
and never wonder why
