[Verse 1]
C/E                        F           C
  When I was young I would look in the mirror
C/E                              F           C
  Didn't know it then but now it couldn't be clearer
C/E                     F                C
  That I remember being filled with such wonder
C/E                        F              C
  Before learning that the world could be harsher
C/E F C
C/E F C
C/E                   F              C
  Who you love or the color of your skin
C/E                          F             C
  Or the place that you were born and grew up in
C/E                    F           C
  Shouldn't decide how you will be treated
C/E                              F           C
   Cause we're all the same when everybody's breathing


[Chorus]
              C/E  F   C
Waiting for a change to set us free
              C/E  G   C
Waiting for the day when you can be you and I can be me
            C/E F   C
Waiting for hope to come around
              C/E  G                      C
Waiting for the day when hate is lost and love is found
              Am G/B C              Am G/B C
Waiting for a change, waiting for a change
C/E F C   C/E F C
Change,   change


[Verse 2]
C/E                         F           C
  For all the brave and the souls who went before us
C/E                        F           C
  Stand tall, then proudly lift your voices
C/E                   F           C
  Let 'em know who we are and our choices
C/E                    F                 C
  And one day we won't have to sing this chorus


[Chorus]
[Chorus]
              C/E  F   C
Waiting for a change to set us free
              C/E  G   C
Waiting for the day when you can be you and I can be me
            C/E F   C
Waiting for hope to come around
              C/E  G                      C
Waiting for the day when hate is lost and love is found
              Am G/B C              Am G/B C
Waiting for a change, waiting for a change
C/E F C   C/E G C
Change,   change
              C/E F C   C/E F C
Waiting for a change,   change, change


[Outro]
When I was young I would look in the mirror
Didn't see it then but now it couldn't be clearer
