[Verse 1]
[A]     25 years of my life and still
[Bmin]  Tryin' to to get up that great big hill of 
[D]     Hope, for a destination.        [A]
[A]     I realized quickly when I knew I should 
[Bmin]  That the world was made up of this brotherhood of 
[D]     Man, for whatever that means.   [A]
{Rest of the song's chord progression is the same thing}

[Chorus]
And so I cry sometimes, when I'm lying in bed
just to get all out, what's in my head, then 
I, I am feeling, a little peculiar.
And so I wake in the morning, and I step outside 
And I take a deep breath, and I get real high, and 
I, scream from the top of my lungs, "What's going on?" 
And I say, "Hey yeah yeah hey, hey yeah yeah."  
I said, "Hey, what's going on?"
And I say, "Hey yeah yeah hey, hey yeah yeah."
I said, "Hey, what's going on?"

[Verse 2]
[A]     And I try, oh my god, do I try 
[Bmin]  I try all the [D] time, in this institution. [A]
[A]     And I pray, oh my god, do I pray
[Bmin]  I pray every single [D] day, for a revolution. [A]

[Chorus and last four lines of the chorus are repeated 2x more]

[Verse 3]
25 years of my life and still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of 
Hope, for a destination
