Verse:
Am Am  G  D       Am
    Yo, I'm like John Lennon
        G         D
  Except I do imagine there's a heaven
       Am             G       D
  Somewhere everyone is welcome all my multicultural brethren
     Am         G  D     Am
  Where hate is outdated, today, love's the word
            G  D
  Even for people from Luxembourg
   Am               G        D
  Or maybe like some other countries that you might ignore, Tonga
Am            G   D
  Never thought of in my life before
      Am              G      D
  But if I met a guy from Tonga then we stop and we speak
   Am          G    D
  In fluent Tongalese on equality street, yep
   Am         G        D
  Acceptance, see that Kenyan guy with mental eyes
Am           G        D
  He might be totally normal you can't genralise
  Am           G   D       Am
  Black people aren't crazy fat people aren't lazy
    G       D
  And dwarfes aren't babies
    Am          G     D
  You can't just pick 'em up they got rights
    Am           G         D

  I learnt the hard way, don't give a damn
       Am               G      D
  If you're Russian or you're Spanish we're comrades, compadres
  Am           G      D
  You could be a half gay woman with a dark face
  Am        G         D
  One leg, no legs, long as you got a heart, hey
  Am            G    D
  Transgender, gay, straight, lesbians
  Am          G       D
