Intro:  A  Bm  D  A  x2
 
A                                                               Bm
  Twenty-five years and my life is still    Trying to get up that great big hill
      D                         A
Of hope for a destination

  A                                                                                  Bm
I realized quickly when I knew I should    That the world was made up of this brotherhood
   D                                        A
Of man, for whatever that means
 

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed    Just to get it all out, what's in my head
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside    and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"

                    A                     Bm
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
            D                             A
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
                   A                      Bm
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
            D                              A
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

A        Bm    D   A
 Ooh, Ooh  Ooh
A        Bm    D   A
 Ooh, Ooh  Ooh
 

And I try, oh my God, do I try
I try all the time, in this institution

And I pray, oh my God, do I pray
I pray every single day    For a revolution

 
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed    Just to get it all out, what's in my head
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside    and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
 

Chorus x2

A      Bm  D   A

Twenty-five years and my life is still Trying to get up that great big hill
of hope. For a destination
