Acoustic session from the Album
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUCKfo1KZPA
Little tab explaining the full pattern that goes round and round :)
There are a couple of places where he puts more accent, but easy to get from listening to the song.
This is a 2 chord song, I just added the lyrics to have everything in one place :)

[Verse 1]
People walking down, talking down on others
You can t know yourself without knowing about the other
And I know, That ain t the right way to go
[Verse 2]
I ve got a hunch that we don t wanted this
Let s move away from hate and prejudice (yeah)
The racist man you know he s full of it
Let s learn about the culture opposite, now
[Pre-Chorus]
Don t judge a book by the cover
People take a look at the world and discover
That beauty is the word that I think of
when I see the different colors of skin
And I ll rejoice and sing for them
[Chorus]
Oh, nooooooooooooo
the tension keeps building up
Oh, no, no, noooo
Well oh noooooooooo
the hatred keeps building up
Oh, no, no, no
[Verse 3]
When we come around, yeah
Try to keep compassion on the ground, yeah
Feel a sense of freedom with crowd, yeah
Connecting people with the sound, oh yeah yeah yeah
[Verse 4]
Well it s a choice to be grateful
People focus on the enemy and that s hateful
The daily news has got a picture of a man, they say I m supposed to hate
So great, just another stereotype to make
[Chorus]
Oh, nooooooooooooo
the tension keeps building up
Oh, no, no, noooo
Well oh noooooooooo
the hatred keeps building up
Oh, no, no, no
[Verse 5]
Too many times that I ve seen the wrong signs
Empty out the hatred in life
Bringing only good vibes
Bringing only good vibes
Too many times that I ve seen the wrong signs
Empty out the hatred in life
We re bringing only good vibes
Bringing only good vibes
