Twen ty five years of my life and still
I’m (Bm)trying to get up that great big hill of (D)hope
for a des ti na tion.
I real ize quick ly when I know I should, that the world was made up of this broth er hood of (D)man,
for what ev er that means.
And so I cry some times when I’m ly in’ in bed just to (Bm)get it all out, what’s in my head, and I,
I am feel ing
a lit tle pe cu liar.
And so I wake in the morn ing and I step out side, and I (Bm)take a deep breath, and I get real high, and I
scream from the top of my lungs, “What’s go in’ on?”
And I say, “Hey,
(Bm)hey.”
I said, “Hey,
what’s go in’ on?”
And I say, “Hey,
(Bm)hey.”
I said, “Hey,
what’s go in’ on?”
And I say, “Hey,
(Bm)hey.”
I said, “Hey,
what’s go in’ on?”
And I say, “Hey,
(Bm)hey.”
I said, “Hey,
what’s go in’ on?”
Ooh,
ooh,
ooh,
ooh,
uh huh.
Twen ty five years of my life and still
I’m (Bm)trying to get up that great big hill of hope
for a des ti na tion.
