 Dm
 The world is changing
  A7                  C
 The planet's heating up
                     G
 What the fuck is going on? (Recorded laughter)
  Dm
 Rearranging
 A7
 It's like everything happened all at once
  C                     G
 Um, what the fuck is going on? (Recorded laughter)

 Bb             C                F 
 The people rising in the streets
     Dm       C    Bb 
 The war, the drought
  Bb           C                    F         Dm    C    Bb
 The more I look, the more I see nothing to joke about
  Bb         C 
 Is comedy over?
 F                   Dm
 Should I leave you alone?
   Dm               C         Bb                  C            F 
 'Cause, really, who's gonna go for joking at a time like this?
   F                     Dm           Am
 Should I be joking at a time like this?

 [PRE-CHORUS]  
     Bb           C                 F              Dm     C
 I wanna help to leave this world better than I found it
        Bb            C
 And I fear that comedy won't help
          F               Dm  C
 And the fear is not unfounded
           Bb                    C
 Should I stop trying to be funny?
           A7              Dm  C  Bb Bbm
 Should I give away my money? No!
 Bbm
 What do I do?

 Healing the world with comedy

 The indescribable power of your comedy
   Dm               C   F 
 The world needs direction
  F                Dm
 From a white guy like me (Bingo)
  Eb                 Bb
 Who is healing the world with comedy
         Dm
 That's it!

 
     C        F          Dm C
 The world is so fucked up. 
  C 
 Systematic oppression, 
     Bb                Gm       Dm C F
 income inequality, the other stuff... 
    F                               Dm          Eb
 And there's only one thing that I can do about it. 
                 Bb 
 While— While being paid and being the center of attention

 I'm a special kind of white guy
 F
 I self reflected, and I want to be an agent of change
     C                           Bb 
 So I am gonna use my privilege for the good (Very cool, way to go!)

 American white guys
  F                                               Eb
 We've had the floor for at least four hundred years
 Eb                      Bb 
 So maybe I should just shut the fuck up


 I'm bored
 Dm           C      F 
 I don't wanna do that
   F               Dm        C
 There's got to be another way (Yes)
 C                          Bb                   Gm
 For me to help out without standing on the sidelines (Never)
   Dm            C F
 The wait is over
  F                  Dm              Eb
 I'm white, and I'm here to save the day
  Eb                             Bb                    Gm
 Lord, help me channel Sandra Bullock in The Blind Side (Sandra Bullock)

 And yes, most likely, they'll pay me, but I'd do it for free
 Eb                 Bb 
 I am healing the world with comedy
