INTRO: Em VERSE: Em Bm I remember when I was younger C Am I saw the pictures on TV Em Bm Of the children who were my age C Am Who had to live their lives in fear PRE-CHORUS: D/A G Am Am7 I sang the peace songs with the hopeful ones Bm C D We believed the world would change and all'd be free CHORUS: Em It was a shout in the distance, but it echoes on D Like a drop in the ocean but the faith is strong C And if we’d gather around Bm D We could make more sound VERSE: Em Bm Now I am older, maybe wiser C Am Maybe more a cynic than before Em Bm But I still long for a new day C Am Let us pray with many millions strong PRE-CHORUS: D/A G Am Am7 We will sing the peace songs with the hopeful ones Bm C D Let us still believe the world will be as one CHORUS: Em It was a shout in the distance, but it echoes on D Like a drop in the ocean but the faith is strong C And if we’d gather around Bm D We could make more sound (x2) BRIDGE: Am G F#m Em Be brave be bold Am G F#m Em And let the truth be told Am Bm C D Pass the message on CHORUS: Em It was a shout in the distance, but it echoes on D Like a drop in the ocean but the faith is strong C And if we’d gather around Bm D We could make more sound (x3) Em
