[Verse]
C                  G/B    Am
Ain't got a soapbox I can stand upon
G    F                Em       F         G
But God gave me a stage, a guitar and a song
   C                  G/B       Am            G
My daddy told me "Son, don't you get involved in
F                  Em        F         G
Politics, religions or other people's quarrels"
[Prechorus]
F                        Am   G           C
   I'll paint the picture, let me set the scene
      F                        Am   G           C
I know when I have children they will know what it means
      F                        Am   G           C
And I pass on these things my family's given to me
     F                        G
Just love and understanding, positivity
[Chorus]
         C                     G/B      Am
We could change this whole world with a piano
   G  F              Em         F        G
Add a bass, some guitar, grab a beat and away we go
 C                 G/B     Am
I'm just a boy with a one-man show
G  F          Em         F      G
No university, no degree But Lord knows 
 C             G/B     Am
everybody's talking 'bout exponential growth
   G  F                 Em         F        G
And the stock market's crashing in their portfolios
      C                 G/B     Am
While I'll be sitting here with a song that I wrote
   G  F              Em                F
Sing, love could change the world in a moment
   G                C G/B Am
But what do I know? 
G  F                    Em        F
   Love can change the world in a moment
   G                C G/B Am
But what do I know?
G  F                    Em        F         G
   Love can change the world in a moment
[Verse]
    C                  G/B    Am
The revolutions coming its a minute away
G  F                Em       F         G
I saw people marching in the streets today
   C                     G/B    Am
You know we are made up of love and hate
G   F                Em       F         G
but both of them are balanced on a razor blade
[Prechorus]
F                        Am   G           C
   I'll paint the picture, let me set the scene
      F                        Am   G           C
I know I'm all for people following their dreams
      F                        Am   G           C
Just remember life is more than fitting in your jeans
     F                        G
It's love and understanding, positivity
[Chorus]
         C                     G/B      Am
We could change this whole world with a piano
   G  F              Em         F        G
Add a bass, some guitar, grab a beat and away we go
 C                 G/B     Am
I'm just a boy with a one-man show
G  F          Em         F      G
No university, no degree But Lord knows 
 C             G/B     Am
everybody's talking 'bout exponential growth
   G  F                 Em         F        G
And the stock market's crashing in their portfolios
      C                 G/B     Am
While I'll be sitting here with a song that I wrote
   G  F              Em                F
Sing, love could change the world in a moment

But what do I know?

   Love can change the world in a moment

But what do I know?
G  F                    Em        F        G
   Love can change the world in a moment
[Prechorus]
F                        Am   G           C
   I'll paint the picture, let me set the scene
      F                        Am   G           C
You know the futures in the hands of you and me 
      F                        Am   G           C
So lets all get together we can all be free
     F                        G
Spread love and understanding, positivity
[Chorus]
         C                     G/B      Am
We could change this whole world with a piano
