Heard a sermon from a creaky pulpit with no one in the nave
I paid a visit to the synagogue, and I left there feeling blame

F5         G5              Am
No one can tell me what to do
     F5                      D5     E5
They had not the capacity to answer me

  What the world needs now is some answers to our problems
  We can't buy more time 'cause our tender isn't valid
  If your soul needs love, you can get consoled by pity
         F     F  F!     F     F F!  G
  But it looks as though faith alone won't sustain us no more

Am  G  Am  G  Am  G  C5 G5 D5 E5

Watched the scientists throw up their hands conceding progress will resolve it all
Saw the manufacturers of Earth's debris ignore another Greenpeace call

No one could tell me what to do
No one had the ability to answer me

  What the world needs now is some accountability
  We can't buy more time 'cause time won't accept our money
  If your soul needs love you can always have my pity
  But it looks as though faith alone won't sustain us no more

  What the world needs now is some answers to our problems
  We can't buy more time 'cause our tender isn't valid
  What the world needs now is some accountability
  If your soul needs love, you can get consoled by pity

  But faith alone... won't sustain us anymore

  Faith alone (faith alone) won't sustain us anymore  x 7
