Intro:
E MajorE

Verse 1:
E MajorE
I woke up this morning
E MajorE
Saw a world full of trouble now
E MajorE
Thought, how’d we ever get so far down
E MajorE
How’s it ever gonna turn around
    A augmentedA
So I turned my eyes to Heaven
A augmentedA                E MajorE
I thought, “God, why don’t You do something?”
E MajorE
Well, I just couldn’t bear the thought of
E MajorE
People living in poverty
E MajorE
Children sold into slavery
E MajorE
The thought disgusted me
    A augmentedA
So, I shook my fist at Heaven
A augmentedA             E MajorE
Said, “God, why don’t You do something?”
E MajorE      F# minorF#m A augmentedA     E MajorE
He said, “I did, I created you”

Chorus:
E MajorE
If not us, then who
E MajorE
If not me and you
    A augmentedA            E MajorE
Right now, it’s time for us to do something
E MajorE
If not now, then when
E MajorE
Will we see an end
       A augmentedA
To all this pain
A augmentedA          C# minorC#m    A augmentedA
It’s not enough to do nothing
          E MajorE
It’s time for us to do something

Verse 2:
E MajorE
I’m so tired of talking
E MajorE
About how we are God’s hands and feet
E MajorE
But it’s easier to say than to be
E MajorE               A augmentedA
Live like angels of apathy who tell ourselves
A augmentedA                 E MajorE
It’s alright, “somebody else will do something”
E MajorE
Well, I don’t know about you
E MajorE
But I’m sick and tired of life with no desire
E MajorE
I don’t want a flame, I want a fire
A augmentedA
I wanna be the one who stands up and says,
A augmentedA      E MajorE
“I’m gonna do something”

Chorus:
E MajorE
If not us, then who
E MajorE
If not me and you
    A augmentedA            E MajorE
Right now, it’s time for us to do something
E MajorE
If not now, then when
E MajorE
Will we see an end
       A augmentedA
To all this pain
A augmentedA          C# minorC#m    A augmentedA
It’s not enough to do nothing
          E MajorE
It’s time for us to do something

Bridge:
C# minorC#m           A augmentedA
We are the salt of the earth
A augmentedA          E MajorE
We are a city on a hill (shine shine, shine shine)
C# minorC#m                 A augmentedA
But we’re never gonna change the world
       BB
By standing still
           BB
No we won’t stand still

Chorus:
E MajorE
If not us, then who
E MajorE
If not me and you
    A augmentedA            E MajorE
Right now, it’s time for us to do something
E MajorE
If not now, then when
E MajorE
Will we see an end
       A augmentedA
To all this pain
A augmentedA          C# minorC#m    A augmentedA
It’s not enough to do nothing
          E MajorE
It’s time for us to do something
