VERSE 1

[E minorEm]Sunday morning, I heard the [D MajorD]preacher say

[C majorC]~TThou shall not kill~T

[E minorEm]I don't wanna hear [D MajorD]nothing else about [C majorC]killing

And that it's God's will


[E minorEm]'Cause our children are [D MajorD]watching us

They put their [C majorC]trust in us

They're gonna be like us

[E minorEm]So let's learn from our [D MajorD]history

And do it [C majorC]differently


CHORUS

I [G+G]hope

For more love, more joy and laughter

I hope

We'll have more than we'll ever need

I [C majorC]hope

We'll have more happy ever afters

I [G+G]hope

We can all live more fearlessly

And we can [D MajorD]lose all the [C majorC]pain and mis[G+G]ery

I hope

I hope

VERSE 2

[E minorEm]Oh Rosie, her man [D MajorD]he gets too rough

[C majorC]That's all she can say,

[E minorEm]Is he's a good man

He don't [D MajorD]mean no harm

He was [C majorC]just brought up that way


[E minorEm]But our children are [D MajorD]watching us

They put their [C majorC]trust in us

They're gonna be like us

[E minorEm]It's okay for us to [D MajorD]disagree

We can [C majorC]work it out lovingly


REPEAT CHORUS


BRIDGE

[G+G]There must be a [E minorEm]way to [C majorC]change what's going on

[G+G]No I don't have [E minorEm]all the [C majorC]answers


REPEAT CHORUS

I [G+G]hope

For more love, more joy and laughter

I hope

We'll have more than we'll ever need

I [C majorC]hope

We'll have more happy ever afters

I [G+G]hope

We can all live more fearlessly

And we can [D MajorD]lose all the [C majorC]pain and mis[G+G]ery

I hope

I hope

I hope

I hope

I hope
