      C#m (x13321@4)  A (x02220@1)BWhile (x2444x@1)away 
          C#m (x13321@4)             A (x02220@1)   BThey (x2444x@1)have tampered with the locks 
         E (022100@1)           F#mAnd (244222@1)your things they rearranged
    C#m (x13321@4)   A (x02220@1)B"We (x2444x@1)propose

         E (022100@1)        F#mIn (244222@1)their wake of disarray 

            AYou (x02220@1)fell in place
           BDon't (x2444x@1)fall asleep 
                C#mThey'll (x13321@4)find us here

              BAs (x2444x@1)a voice proclaimed

        C#m (x13321@4)      E (022100@1)      AWhat (x02220@1)we are is the sum of a thousand lies 
        C#m (x13321@4)          E (022100@1)        AWhat (x02220@1)we know is almost nothing at all 
       C#m (x13321@4)       E (022100@1)           ABut (x02220@1)we are what we are until the day we die 
         B (x2444x@1)                              AOr (x02220@1)until we don't have the strength to go on

       C#m (x13321@4)  
Let us cry 
       C#m (x13321@4)  
Let us be 
       C#m (x13321@4)       
Let us open up our hearts 
        E (022100@1)        F#mWithout (244222@1)fear of anything
      C#mFaith (x13321@4)alone 
          C#mIs (x13321@4)all we need 
      C#mTo (x13321@4)traverse this burning bridge 
      E (022100@1)              F#mNow (244222@1)before it gets too late 

                AYou (x02220@1)said. "it's fine"
              BBut (x2444x@1)the heart reveals 
            C#mWhat (x13321@4)smiles betray 
             B (x2444x@1)           AYour (x02220@1)sad sad eyes gave you away 
          BDon't (x2444x@1)you know

B (x2444x@1)            C#m (x13321@4)         A (x02220@1)Our shoulders bear an awful weight 
But still we trudge on just the same 
B (x2444x@1)           C#m (x13321@4)            A (x02220@1)These colors run then leave a stain 
They blacken our once honest name 
B (x2444x@1)             C#m (x13321@4)       A (x02220@1)But how can we argue, tell me 
Over the fury and the fire 
B (x2444x@1)                   C#m (x13321@4)         AHow (x02220@1)many times can we tell you that we

Are not like you, we see right through 
                                 AYour (x02220@1)poor disguise that fails to fool 
         B (x2444x@1)                    AThe (x02220@1)wary eye that is trained on you
