1.

It takes a different person, to see beyond the horizon;
        Dm                            G                          C
To see beyond the cares of daily life;
                  Am                                            G                       F                                 C
And to dream a dream for the world, and all the life found there,
       F                                             C                       Dm                                         G
A dream of oneness and harmony, a dream that everyone cares.
                F                         C                        F                          C

Chorus

With a vision for the world, and a vision for our hearts,
              F                         C                         Dm               G
And a vision for the brotherhood, of all mankind.
 F                     C                     F                                 C
Rotary, oh Rotary, we come together to serve;
  F                   C                     Dm             G               C
Rotary, oh Rotary, we come together in love.

2.

Since the year of 1905, this dream has come alive;
    And spread to the hearts of many, all around the world.
    A group of people dedicated, to making a difference around them;
    A group of people who see the world, through the eyes of what it can be.
                    F                               G

Bridge

Through a 100* years and in millions of ways,
                    F                                  C
We have sung Paul Harris’ song;
             Am                             G
After 100 years and in millions of lives,
        Dm                                                        G
His Rotary dream — still stands strong.
Chorus
* Or use number of years since 1905.
