          G                              Em
There are children raised in sorrow on a scorched and barren plain,

          C                 Am             G     D7
there are children raised beneath a golden sun.

          G                      Em
There are children of the water, children of the sand,

         C                   Am              F                D    Dsus4   D
and they cry out through the universe, their voices raised as one:

          G               Gmaj7           C              Cadd9
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,

          Bm               C               D             G      G    D7    D7
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live.

         G                                Em
Have you gazed out on the ocean, seen the breaching of a whale?

         C                    Am                  G      D7
Have you watched the dolphins frolic in the foam?

         G                                      Em
Have you heard the song the humpback hears five hundred miles away?

        C                Am         F            D     Dsus4   D
Telling tales of ancient history of passages and home?

          G               Gmaj7           C              Cadd9
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,

          Bm               C               D             G      G
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live.

        Am                          Em                
For the worker and the warrior, the lover and the liar, 

        F              Am          G      G
For the native and the wanderer in kind.

        Am                          Em
For the maker and the user, and the mother and her son.

     F              Am         F              D      Dsus4   D     
I am looking for my family and all of you are mine.

       G                              Em
We are standing all together, face to face and arm in arm.

       C               Am             G       D7
We are standing on the threshold of a dream.

        G                                Em
No more hunger, no more killing, no more wasting life away.

      C          Am        F                 D     Dsus4    D
It is simply an idea and I know its time has come.

          G               Gmaj7           C              Cadd9
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,

          Bm               C               D
I want to share what I can give, I want to be,

          G               Gmaj7           C              Cadd9
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,

          Bm               C               D             G     
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live.

          G               Gmaj7           C              Cadd9
I want to live, I want to grow, I want to see, I want to know,

          Bm               C               D             G
I want to share what I can give, I want to be, I want to live,
