 E   A   Ex2
[Verse]
LaBtely mother earAth has been feeling unsaEtisfied, 
IB'd say it's plain from the rAain the sweet lady's staErted to cry, 
FBires crackle and blAaze in the rays of her buErning heart, 
and I don't thAink it's smart to, 
LBay and wait for the dAay that she dies in our Earms. 
[Chorus]
We gotta Edo something, 
We gotta dBo something, 
BefAore mother earth gets anymore hurt, 
We gEotta do something! 
[Verse]
BFrom what I've read there's a loAtta bad stuff in the woErld today, 
BIt's been said it's getting roAugh to find a place where the chEildren play, 
So, BMr Prime Minister and MAr President you betBter see that it's 
not oAnly me, no, oBur mob is rising in sAize, 
and they've been dying to scEream out to you! 
[Chorus]
You gotta Edo something, 
We gotta dBo something, 
SometAimes I sit in my room and I don't know what to do,
but we've gEotta do something! 
It's time to Edo something, 
Someone should Bdo something, 
We goAtta do something, 
and that someone is youE, and you and you and you! 
[Bridge]
  C#mI pray it aiBn't all lost and goEne, 
  C#mI pray we migBht learn right from wronEg, 
  C#mand I pray this brokBen day, will nEot lBast too lAong, 
I pray that you believe my sEong ... Darlin'! C#m  
[Bridge 2]
EYou know I'm sorry if this is hard for you to take, 
But a lot of it just needs saying, 
C#mand I don't see anyone else out there, 
giving Bout this message, 
and if I don't do this, Who'Es gonna do it? 
And maybe, if someone hears tBhese words, 
maybe the whole world gets roAund and listens, 
to what I'm sayin', and maybe Ewe have a chance. 
Because I don't wanna see another child crying, 
I don't wanna see another dBog dying in the streets, 
I can't sAee another homeless man, because it doesn't seem riEght to me, 
He's got a home, and he's not got a home, 
What's the point in that? 
Why can't we all jBust get together, in one big home, 
Aand if I was in Government, 
Then I'd Government thEings much more differentlier, 
because it ain't the best way to government things, 
So there's poor peoplBe everywhere, 
You know I would just be sittin' alone, 
AThinkin' "How can I do something?", 
'Cos I aEin't gonna be in chains no-more, 
You lot might have been conned, but I ain't been conned, 
'Cos I'm a fBree man, I'm free, and I'm gonna let my sAoul soar, 
and the way I do that is through my muEsic, 
so why don't you do something?

[Intro]

E A E

[Verse]

B A E

Lately mother earth has been feeling unsatisfied,

B A E

I'd say it's plain from the rain the sweet lady's started to cry,

B A E

Fires crackle and blaze in the rays of her burning heart,

and I don't think it's smart to,

B A E

Lay and wait for the day that she dies in our arms.

[Chorus]

We gotta do something,

Before mother earth gets anymore hurt,

We gotta do something!

[Verse]

B A E

From what I've read there's a lotta bad stuff in the world today,

B A E

It's been said it's getting rough to find a place where the children play,

B A B

So, Mr Prime Minister and Mr President you better see that it's

A B A

not only me, no, our mob is rising in size,

and they've been dying to scream out to you!

[Chorus]

You gotta do something,

We gotta do something,

Sometimes I sit in my room and I don't know what to do,

but we've gotta do something!

It's time to do something,

Someone should do something,

We gotta do something,

and that someone is you, and you and you and you!

[Bridge]

C#m B E

I pray it ain't all lost and gone,

C#m B E

I pray we might learn right from wrong,

C#m B E B A

and I pray this broken day, will not last too long,

E C#m

I pray that you believe my song ... Darlin'!

[Bridge 2]

You know I'm sorry if this is hard for you to take,

But a lot of it just needs saying,

C#m

and I don't see anyone else out there,

giving out this message,

and if I don't do this, Who's gonna do it?

And maybe, if someone hears these words,

maybe the whole world gets round and listens,

to what I'm sayin', and maybe we have a chance.

Because I don't wanna see another child crying,

I don't wanna see another dog dying in the streets,

A E

I can't see another homeless man, because it doesn't seem right to me,

He's got a home, and he's not got a home,

What's the point in that?

Why can't we all just get together, in one big home,

and if I was in Government,

Then I'd Government things much more differentlier,

because it ain't the best way to government things,

So there's poor people everywhere,

You know I would just be sittin' alone,

Thinkin' "How can I do something?",

'Cos I ain't gonna be in chains no-more,

You lot might have been conned, but I ain't been conned,

B A

'Cos I'm a free man, I'm free, and I'm gonna let my soul soar,

and the way I do that is through my music,

so why don't you do something?
