[Intro]
Am  Dsus2  Fmaj7  G
 
[Verse 1]
Am                  Dsus2
  Is it getting better?
Fmaj7                 G
  Or do you feel the same?
Am                 Dsus2
  Will it make it easier on you now
Fmaj7                G
  You got someone to blame, you say
 
[Chorus 1]
C          Am
  One love,   one life,
Fmaj7                C
  When it's one need, in the night
C          Am
  One love,  we get to share it
Fmaj7                       C
  It leaves you baby, if you don't care for it
 
Am  Dsus2  Fmaj7  G
 
[Verse 2]
Am             Dsus2
  Did I disappoint you?
Fmaj7                           G
  Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
Am                       Dsus2
  You act like you never had love
Fmaj7                       G
  And you want me to go without, well it's
 
[Chorus 2]
C           Am
  Too late,    tonight
Fmaj7                    C
  To drag the past out into the light
C                     Am
  We're one, but we're not the same
         Fmaj7                 C
We get to carry each other, carry each other
  Am  Dsus2  Fmaj7  G
One
 
[Verse 3]
Am                          Dsus2
  Have you come here for forgiveness?
Fmaj7                        G
  Have you come to raise the dead?
Am                           Dsus2
  Have you come here to play Jesus
Fmaj7                   G
  To the lepers in your head?
 
[Chorus 3]
C                    Am
  Did I ask too much,  more than a lot
Fmaj7                          C
  You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
C                      Am
  We're one, but we're not the same
        Fmaj7                     C
Well, we hurt each other, then we do it again
 
[Bridge]
        C                   Am
You say, love is a temple, love a higher law
 C                 Am
Love is a temple, love the higher law
    C                    G
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
    G                   Fmaj7
And I can't be holding on
             Fmaj7                    C
To what you got, when all you got is hurt
 
[Chorus 4]
C          Am
  One love,   one blood
Fmaj7                  C
  One life, you got to do what you should
C          Am
  One life,   with each other
Fmaj7      C
  Sisters,   brothers
C                    Am
  One life, but we're not the same
         Fmaj7                 C
We get to carry each other, carry each other
 
[Outro]
C    Am     Fmaj7      C
One,         one
C    Am     Fmaj7      C
One
C    Am     Fmaj7      C
Hoooho, baby, baby, baby
C    Am     Fmaj7      C
Hoooho, ho ho, ho
C    Am     Fmaj7      C
Hoooho, ho ho, ho
