[Intro]
 
G D Em C
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G            D             Em            C
 Sometimes I lay under the moon, I thank God I'm breathing
G       D                  Em                C
 Then I pray don't take me soon, 'cause I am here for a reason
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
G                       D            Em                  C
Sometimes in my tears I drown, but I never let it get me down
        G            D          Em                 C
So when negativity surrounds, I know someday it'll all turn around because
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                     D                      Em                   C
All my life I've been waiting for, I've been praying for, for the people to say
G                   D                          Em                    C
That we don't wanna fight no more, there'll be no more wars, and our children will play
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G          D           Em                  C
 It's not about win or lose, 'cause we all lose when they feed on the
G                      D                        Em                        C
Souls of the innocent, blood-drenched pavement, keep on movin' though the waters stay ragin'
G        D                        Em        C
 In this maze you could lose your way, your way
         G                    D                         Em      C
It might drive you crazy, but don't let it phase you no way, no way
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
G                       D            Em                  C
Sometimes in my tears I drown, but I never let it get me down
        G            D          Em                 C
So when negativity surrounds, I know someday it'll all turn around because
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                     D                      Em                   C
All my life I've been waiting for, I've been praying for, for the people to say
G                   D                          Em                    C
That we don't wanna fight no more, there'll be no more wars, and our children will play
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
    G                              D                Em                     C
One day this all will change, treat people the same, stop with the violence, down with the hate
    G                      D               Em                 C
One day we'll all be free, and proud to be under the same sun singing songs of freedom like
 
G      D     Em       C
Wye oh   Wye oh oh oh
G      D     Em       C
Wye oh    Wye oh oh oh
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                     D                      Em                   C
All my life I've been waiting for, I've been praying for, for the people to say
G                   D                          Em                    C
That we don't wanna fight no more, there'll be no more wars, and our children will play
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
G        D        Em       C
One day, one day, one day,  oh oh oh
