[Verse 1]
Every C#age has its tA#murn
Every bF#mranch of the tree has to learnC#  
Learn to gC#row, find its A#mway
Make the bF#mest of this short-lived stayC#  
[Verse 2]
Take this sC#eed, take this sA#mpade 
Take thiF#ms dream of a better dayC#  
Take your tC#ime, build a A#mhome
Build a pF#mlace where we all can belC#ong
[Instrumental]
C#  C#
[Verse 3]
Some things chC#ange, some reA#mmain
Some will F#mpass us unnoticed C#by
What to fC#ocus on, to impA#mrove upon
In the F#mface of our ancient trC#ibes
[Verse 4]
Feels so clC#ear, feels so A#mobvious
To F#meach one on their oC#wn
But we're hC#ere, togA#mether
RF#meaping what tFmime and what D#mwe have sC#own
[Instrumental]
C#  C#  C#  C#
[Verse 5]
We don't chC#oose where we're A#mborn
We don't chF#moose in what pocket or fC#orm
But we can lC#earn to kA#mnow
OurF#mselves on this globe in the vC#oid
[Verse 6]
Take this mC#ind, take this A#mpen
Take this dF#mream of a better laC#nd
Take your tC#ime, build a hA#mome
Build a pF#mlace where we FmallD#m...  can beloC#ng
