Intro:

D7 G7

Verse:
   C            Am
My childhood wasn't what you might call a success
   Dm               G7
I was born in northern England in a time of strife and stress
   C          Am
The war was over and somebody said we'd won
   Dm               G
But I was too young to know all the damage that was done
Am              F
Now looking back, there are things that I recall
    C        E        Am Fm
I was frightened of the dark when I was small
C        Dm     G
They said it's over now at last
C       Dm       G
Think of the future not the past

Chorus:
  C    G    Am       G
And we will try, To build a new and better life
F        C          Dm7   G
Out of darkness we'll bring light for all mankind
  C     G  Am       G
Yes we will strive, Now until the end of time
F        C
For the sake of you and I
  Dm  G C
And all mankind

Verse:
C               Am
Sometimes I think of all the prizes we have won
    Dm            G
But we are no richer now than before when we had none
C            Am
I look around and I see ashes everywhere
     Dm7              G
Yet the madness still goes on, Doesn't anybody care
 Am               Dm
Though, on reflection, there are words that I still hear
     C        E        Am Fm
Could it be that someone somewhere is sincere
C      Dm        G
No matter what the price may be
C     Dm      G
We must believe in sanity

Chorus:
  C    G    Am       G
And we will try, To build a new and better life
F        C          Dm7   G
Out of darkness we'll bring light for all mankind
  C     G  Am       G
Yes we will strive, Now until the end of time
F        C
For the sake of you and I
  Dm  G C
And all mankind
