[Verse]
A
Oh if I had my way
D
We'd love one another
A
And if I had my way
D
We'd all live as brothers
Bm
There'd be no more
E
Fussing and fighting
Bm                E
No more hungry innocent dying
Bm                   E
I'd make it all go away
A
If I had my way.

[Chorus]
A
If I had my way
D
I'd carry your burden
A
And if I had my way
D
No one would be hurtin'
Bm                  E
There'd be no more hatred and lying
Bm              E
No more lonely little kids crying
Bm                   E
I'd make it all go away
A
If I had my way.

F#m    E             D
Maybe one day the walls will come down
F#m      E          D             A
If I had my way the lost would be found
F#m         E
Love would find a way
D                     E
To turn everything around.

Bm                  E
There'd be no more fussing and fighting

No more frightened little kids crying
Bm                   E
I'd make it all go away
A
If I had my way.
