Standard (EADGBE)
By the year 2020, I want to look at what we did
So we can stand up all together, Cause we put an end to it
And there'll be no more pointless fighting, No more money running it
Bring back love, Bring back love
Bring back looooove again
I was standing in a Chapel, It's not something I normally did
But I was broken, a mess, And I had nothing to give
A man with money in my pocket, I just stared straight up and looked at him
He said "Go take it son, You can do much more with it."
And we all could learn from him, Yeah I will never forget what he said
By the year 2020, I want to look at what we did
So we can stand up all together, Cause we put an end to it
And there'll be no more pointless fighting, No more money running it
Bring back love, Bring back love
Now I was walking down my sidewalk, I just paid my final debt
I see a woman and her son, Yeah they had no place to live
The boy was turning out his pockets, I heard him wish he had a bed
I said "I have some room you could use to get back in."
She said "I'm not sure if I can pay you for this"
That's fine, I'm hoping...
By the year 2020, I want to look at what we did
So we can stand up all together, Cause we put an end to it
And there'll be no more pointless fighting, No more money running it
Bring back love, Bring back love
Bring back looooove again
Instrumental break
Bring back love
Bring back love
Bring back love
Bring back love
(between these sections play a B chord)
By the year 2020, I hope I'm standing here,
With my head held high; My arms up in the air...
