Lyrics

[00:32.16] I woke up today a song was swimming in my head
[00:38.53] And I hummed it to myself as I got out of bed
[00:43.83]
[00:44.51] And on the way to take a shower it all just dawned on me
[00:50.26]
[00:51.20] That a song like this just might go down in history
[00:54.99]
[00:58.06] I quickly ran back to get my guitar
[01:04.36]
[01:05.79] A pen and some paper
[01:07.61]
[01:09.91] 'Cause this whole world needs an Anthem
[01:14.22]
[01:16.22] And I'm trying to put the words where they belong
[01:20.15]
[01:22.39] Yeah this whole world needs an Anthem
[01:26.70]
[01:28.95] And I'm hoping everyone will sing along
[01:32.88]
[01:35.24] Well I quickly got to work and put the song in gear
[01:40.93]
[01:41.92] And my neighbor rang the doorbell said it caught his ear
[01:46.99]
[01:47.99] I was playing it so loud the whole neighborhood could hear
[01:53.54]
[01:54.60] And at night from every household it became quite clear
[01:59.91]
[02:00.59] Everyone iust singing along
[02:04.45]
[02:05.64] The same notes the same song
[02:08.08]
[02:09.39] Or maybe I heard it wrong
[02:12.38]
[02:13.26] 'Cause this whole world needs an Anthem
[02:17.75]
[02:19.49] And I'm trying to put the words where they belong
[02:23.43]
[02:25.99] Yeah this whole world needs an Anthem
[02:30.10]
[02:32.22] And I'm hoping everyone will sing along
[02:36.23]
[02:54.51] Everyone was singing along
[02:58.45]
[02:59.57] The same notes the same song
[03:02.13]
[03:03.00] Or maybe I heard it wrong
[03:06.38]
[03:07.06] 'Cause this whole world needs an Anthem
[03:11.36]
[03:13.43] And I'm trying to put the words where they belong
[03:17.30]
[03:19.98] Yeah this whole world needs an Anthem
[03:24.03]
[03:26.09] And I'm hoping everyone will sing along
[03:30.15]
[03:32.52] Yeah this whole world needs an Anthem
[03:36.57]
[03:38.35] And I'm trying to put the words where they belong
[03:42.60]
[03:45.22] Yeah this whole world needs an Anthem
[03:49.27]
[03:51.58] And I'm hoping everyone will sing along
