[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][C]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Back in the days somewhere
around the [D]San Francisco Bay
A [C]voice was raised and echoed
out [D]across the USA
And [G]carried upon the ocean's waves,
its [D]message could be heard
The [C]noise kept gaining strength and power,
[D]all around the world
An[Em]d the people fought for
[G]each other's [C]rights,
everyone's beliefs to flower power
[G]But most of all they fought for [D]love
Since 1968 [G]the revolution began,
now we must carry the [A]weight
Until the world is succumbed
to the message we [C]bring
The prophecies of the young
will make them [D]sing
So come on [Dsus4]people unite
[G]and half the battle is won
We'll bring our love and our [A]light
until the world is succumbed
To the message we [C]bring,
the prophecies of the young
Will make them [D]sing
But [G]as it turned out the wave rolled back
and [D]silently we fell
The [C]noise became an ancient story
that [D]no one lived to tell
So [G]now we're the under -chosen ones
with [D]flowers in our hair
Let's [C]carry on the songs we sang
[D]back in the day somewhere
[Em]When the people fought for each
[G]other's [C]rights,
everyone's beliefs,
the flower power lied
[G]When most of all they fought for [D]love
Since 1968 [G]the revolution began,
now we must carry the weight
[A]Until the world is succumbed
to the message we [C]bring
The prophecies of the young
will make them [D]sing
[Dsus4]So come o[D]n people[G] unite
and have the battle is won
We'll bring our love and our [A]light
until the world has succumbed
Through the message we'll
[C]bring
the prophecies of the young
We'll make [D]them sing
Imagine all the people
[Em]sharing [A]all the world
[D]Let's come together[Em],
[F]let's make [G]love and spread the word
That there's a [F]whole new generation
Creating [C]all new good vibrations
So come [D]on, turn on, tune in, drop out
This time we'll make [G]them sing[A][C]
[D]Oh, it's 1968
Re[G]volution began,
now we must carry the weight
[A]Till the world will succumb
to the message we [C]bring
The prophecies of the young,
[G]we'll [C]make them [D]sing[Dsus4]
[D]So [Dsus4]come on peop[D]le unite
[G]and have a battle, it's won
We'll bring our love and our light
[A]until the world has succumbed
To the message we bring[C],
the prophecies of the young
[G]We'll [C]make them [D]sing[Dsus4]
[D]Since 1968 [G]the revolution began
We must carry the weight
[A]until the world has succumbed
To the message we bring[C],
the prophecies of the young
[G]We'll [C]make them [D]sing[Dsus4]
[D]So come on people unite
[G]and have a battle, it's won
We'll bring a love and a light
[A]Till the world is succumbed
To the message we [C]bring
Prophecies of the young
[G]We'll [C]make them [D]sing[Dsus4]
[D]From 1968
[G]The revolution began
We were scaring away
[A]Till the world is succumbed
[G]To the [A]message we [C]bring
Prophecies of the young
[G]We'll [C]make them [D]sing
So da -da -da -da -da -da [G]-day
Da -da -da -da -da -da
There's one thing I'll never do to[A]night
I'll never let it succumb
[G]To the message we [C]bring
Prophecies of the young
[G]We'll [C]make this [D]again[Dsus4]
[D]We'll make this [G]again
