[Intro] C G F C (x2) [Verse 1]
 Am                       G
We switched to Jay Leno from da Ali G show

    F                                    C
to see some kids that we know do what they do on TV.

     Am                            G
Sometimes I wish I was there, but mostly I just don't care,

    F                                    C
I cry and laugh and forth and back, it's all good comedy,

      Am                                 G
and there's no rhyme or reason for the changing of the seasons,

   F                                        C
sometimes the winter lasts for months, sometimes it lasts for days.

     Am                                 G
The world is an amazing place, there's gaping holes in outer space,

 F                                    C
sunburned for the first time skin is peeling off my face.
[Chorus 1]
      Am            G                     Am            G
And Bruno said what Anders said, some producer said to young Lennon

       F            G          C
"They can't all be ballads, Julian".

      Am            G                     Am            G

       F            G          C
"They can't all be ballads, Julian".
[Verse 2]
    Am                              G
O-o-open up your eyes and see the beauty over there.

F                            C
Open up our ears and be surprised by what you hear,

             Am                          G
'cause it's not just on the radio, it's not just on the video,

   F                                C
it isn't all downloadable, there's music everywhere,

         Am                                G
and the fact that they divide us should be enough to unite us,

   F                                       C
we are the world, so boys and girls, let's all collaborate,

         Am                             G
'cause when we play together, we won't notice the bad weather,

       F                                    C
like flashlight tag when it's real cold or kickball in the rain.
[Chorus 1]
      Am            G                     Am            G

       F            G          C
"They can't all be ballads, Julian".
[Bridge]
    Am                             G
Get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean,

        Am                        G
you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine,

    Am                             G
get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean,

        Am                        G
you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine,

    Am                             G
get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean,

        Am                        G
you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine,

    Am                             G
get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean,

        Am                        G
you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine,

    Am                             G
get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean,

        Am                        G
you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine.
[Verse 3]
         Am                                 G
Doesn't matter what you look like, doesn't matter what you sound like,

         F                               C
doesn't matter if they like you, just remember to be kind,

     Am                              G
and tell someone you miss them, and tell someone you need them,

     F                                  C
and tell someone you wish you could be with them all the time,

        Am                         G
sounds silly but it's not a game, making music makes me sane,

   F                           C
I sing away my pain and everything turns out okay,

             Am                              G
and I'm not talking fame and glory, 'cause that's a different story,

       F                           C
this story is about how truth and love can save the day
[Chorus 2]
