Verse 1:
 C#C#
I bought a product they should not have sold
 C#C#
I called the help line
 C#C#
They put me on hold
 F#F#
I've been waiting for an hour
 F#F#
Now my phone's losing power
     C#C#
And I'm gonna explode
     F#F#
I hear, "How may I help you today?"
 F#F#
I know a very rude answer
 F#F#
But I'm wondering, hey

Chorus 1:
     C#C#            F#F#
What if everybody talked like my friend Jesus?
   C#C#          F#F#
If everybody loved like my friend Jesus
   C#C#           F#F#
If everyone forgave like my friend Jesus
     D#D#           F#F#
It would give the world a new beginning
     D#D#           F#F#
What if this is like an early inning?

Verse 2:
 C#C#
I state my business;
 C#C#
She puts me on hold
 C#C#
I'm back to thinking;
 C#C#
I'm gonna explode
     F#F#
And the dog wants dinner
     F#F#
And the music they're playing
      C#C#
Is the sound-track of hell
      F#F#
You say, "Two wrongs don't make a right?"
 F#F#
Just try listening to Celine Dion all night

Chorus 2:
    C#C#           F#F#
But if everybody talked like my friend Jesus
   C#C#           F#F#
If everybody loved like my friend Jesus
   C#C#           F#F#
If everyone forgave like my friend Jesus
    D#D#         F#F#
If we want to mend world relations
    D#D#          F#F#
Surely I can show a little patience

Bridge:
 D#mD#m                    A#A#
I've been waiting around for this world to change
A#A#                   F#F#
Another day cut loose, another lame excuse
 F#F#                     G#G#
I've got the why and how to start here and now...
       C#C#         F#F#
...Then my cellphone drops the call
    C#C#        F#F#
...And I spew out vitriol
       C#C#           F#F#          D#D#           F#F#
...And as my fist goes through the wall, a voice says, "Be the change you wanna see!"

Chorus 3:
    C#C#           F#F#
But if everybody talked like my friend Jesus
   C#C#           F#F#
If everybody loved like my friend Jesus
   C#C#           F#F#
If everyone forgave like my friend Jesus
     D#D#           F#F#
What a changed world this could be
    C#C#           F#F#
But if everybody talked like my friend Jesus
   C#C#           F#F#
If everybody loved like my friend Jesus
   C#C#           F#F#
If everyone forgave like my friend Jesus
     D#D#           F#F#
What a changed world this could be
     D#D#             F#F#         C#C#
Starting now, Maybe I can start the change in me
