Ebm                  B   
Warm yourself by the fire, son

And the morning will come soon

In a place that we once knew
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ebm                          B    
Before we packed our bags and left all this

Behind us in the dust

We had a place that we could call home

And a life no one could touch

You will let me down, down, down

You will let me down, down, down down!

Ebm                      B   
We are the angry and the desperate
    F#             Db        
The hungry and the cold
Ebm                      B  
We are the ones who kept quiet
           F#               Ebm         
And always did what we were told
---------------------------------------------------------------

But we've been sweating while you slept so calm

In the safety of your home
Ebm                        B    
We've been pulling out the nails that hold up
Db                Ebm    
Everything you've known
---------------------------------------------------------------

Don't hold me up now

You will let me down, down, down

Abm          F#     
So open your eyes child let's be on our way
Abm                F#     
Broken windows and ashes are guiding the way
Abm                 F#
Keep quiet no longer we'll sing through the day
E                       Ebm                               B
Of the lives that we've lost and the lives we've reclaimed
F#  Db
........ Go!
