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

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

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

Chorus 2:
        C#                      F#

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

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

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