Hope in a Hopeless World Lyrics

We were born in new york city
Wrapped in a blanket all tattered and worn
Mamas doing the best that she can
Takes hope in a hopeless world
Her eldest son, he stayed in school
Listened to his mother, he never drank or used
And every job he wants he gets refused
Takes hope in a hopeless world
Looking for hope in a hopeless world
Trying to find love in these hateful times
Trying to stay strong but my mind is weak
Looking for hope in a hopeless world
SOLO 1 (Verse Chords)

Churches are full, but the prayers are not heard
Saturday's child don't wanna go to Sunday school
Whatever happened to the golden rule?
Takes hope in a hopeless world
D'you got a quarter for the homeless man
Spare some change for the soldiers who fought the war
Put a little money in those hats and those tins
Give them hope in a hopeless world
Looking for hope in a hopeless world
Trying to find love in these hateful times
Trying to stay strong but my mind is weak
Looking for hope in a hopeless world
SOLO 2 (Verse Chords)

Somebody out there got to listen
Somebody out there got to know what pops been talking about
Raise your hand, raise your hand if you're willin'
Give us hope in a hopeless world
Looking for hope in a hopeless world
Trying to find love in these hateful times
Trying to stay strong but my mind is weak
Ease my mind, ease my mind
Looking for hope in a hopeless world
Trying to find love in these hateful times
Trying to stay strong but my mind is weak
Looking for hope in a hopeless world
