[Verse 1]

A               Aaug
I believe the children are our future
A6                   A9        A7
Teach them well and let them lead the way
D                   Daug               D6 Daug
Show them all the beauty they posses inside
D            C#m7     F#m7              Bm7
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
E          E7/D         C#m F#m7  Bm7             E7sus
Let the children's laughter    remind us how we used to be

A            Aaug
Everybody seaching for a hero
A6             A9           A7
People need someone to look up to
D                 Daug                 D6 Daug
I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs
    D      C#m7   F#m7          Bm7      E7sus  D
A lonely place to be, so I learned to depend on me


[Pre-Chorus]

D           A9/C#    Bm7               E7sus     E7
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadow
D              A9/C#            Bm7            E7sus  E
If I failed, if I succeed, at least I lived as I   believed
D                    A9/C#             Bm7                 E7sus
No matter what they take from me they can't take away my dignity


[Chorus]

 (E      E7/D)  C#m7  F#m7  Bm7               E  E7/D      C#m7 F#m7
Because the grea----test love of all is happening to me
Bm7   E  E7/D  C#m7  F#m7   Bm7          E7sus    A A7
I found the grea----test love of all inside of me

The greatest love of all
    A    A7/G    F#m7 Bm7 Em7 A    A7/G F#m7     Bm7
Is easy to  achieve        learning to  love yourself,

it is the greatest love of all
