something like:

D-||o---2------------2-0-------3-0-----5-0--o||

and that repeats over most of the verses, an electric plays something
similar, maybe just the first three notes per chord.
the bridge is: (listen to the album for a better idea of the rythm)

the guitar cuts out a bit after the first bridge leaving the bass.. then
comes in slowly:
verse 1:
The world is burning down, cant you smell the smoke in the air?
War, disease and famine, this demon she is everywhere.
Poets and preachers and politicians, they've all had their say.
We got 10,000 years devoted to nothing but tomorrow and yesterday.
10,000 years... woah..
chorus:
Fmaj7/C A
If all the ignorance in the world passed a second ago.
F G A
What would you say?
F G A F G
Who would you obey?
Fmaj7/C
I am here to say that
A (continue progression)
Peace is now
Peace is now
bridge:
verse 2:
Mr President I .... of all your sins, for they are just as much mine
Selfishness and separation have led me to believe that the world is not my
problem.
The world is not my problem
I am the world
And you are the world
And I.. I, yes I am the world
And you are the world
chorus:
bridge:
peace is now.... etc
ending: G A repeat
I hope this is enjoyed
