Dm 
If you read the papers you will see 

History in the making 
        G 
You?ll read what they say life is all about 

They say it?s there for the taking 
            Dm 
Yeah, but, you should really check it out 

If you want to know what?s shaking 
 

      C7M                        Eb7M 
But don?t tell me about the things you?ve heard 
F7M                                 G 
Maybe I?m wrong but I want to believe in humanity 
 

Dm 
I know it?s often true, sad to say 

We have been unkind to one another 
          G 
Tell me, how many times has the golden rule 

Been applied by man to his brother? 
            Dm 
Well, I believe if I really looked at what?s going on 

I could lose faith I never could recover 
 

      C7M                        Eb7M 
So don?t tell me about the things you?ve heard 
F7M                                 G 
Maybe I?m wrong but I want to believe in humanity 
 

Am 
Maybe I?m living 

With my head in the sand 

I just wanna see people giving 
F                        G 
I wanna believe in my fellow man 
               Dm 
Yes I wanna believe 
 
Finish on 
Am
